Crypto is a function of a Space ship. Space Ships and other functions can be found here. This allows the transmission of encrypted information. This allows communications to become 'secure' between vessels. Without this communications between teammates ships can be overheard by the enemy. Communications can also be intercepted, this can be done without this module and is a feature of all ships using the Communications attribute. If the intercepted communications is encrypted this function can attempt to decipher it. A Character with the Decipher Script skill can also assist. They can even assist with a +2 bonus if the ship has a Science Bay.
Description
This is a set of powerful quantum computers that require both physical space and a lot of power to keep and super cold temperatures. When working correctly these machines can create nearly impossible to crack cyphers that only other powerful quantum computers could possibly hope to crack. Because this is equivalent to have a small server farm built into a ship not ever space ship can easily have one.
Once a ship has a Cyrpto bay then it becomes impossible to decrypt or jam comms between ships, crew members and drones unless the enemy ship also has a Crypto bay that is a higher masterwork level.
A Crypto machine is installed in a Bay or Customization Slot.
- Associated Ship Attribute: Electronics
- Price: A Crypto machine base price is: $175,000 + $100,000 per masterwork level.
- Procure Diff: A Crypto machine has a starting Procure Difficulty of 1.
