While the senior staff was being briefed about the situation onboard, an unauthorized access alert started. The computer access point in the lower stellar cartography lab would indicate that someone without the proper codes had managed to breach computer security protocols to access sensitive information in the ship database.

Due to the nature and location of the breach, alerts activated at one of each of the Engineering and Science consoles on the Bridge, the Chief Science Officer’s main console, and the Chief of Security Officer’s Office. However, only senior staff were able to access more information than that an unauthorized data breach had occurred.

A breach? In his lab? Uh-uh. That made Alden very unhappy. He opened the alert and began looking to access further information. He was looking for what exactly had been breached, what information or thing they were looking for.

~ Cmdr Alden, XO/CSO

OOC: Sorry about the delay on this; I was waiting to see if anyone else would respond.

The alert read as follows:

---

Whoever had accessed the Stellar Cartography computer had been accessing seemingly innocuous information; it was only when whoever was using the computed tried to make an unauthorized connection to the Starbase that the computer systems triggered an alert. Additionally, whoever had been accessing the Sentinel’s systems seemed to know enough about Starfleet computers to manually override multiple security protocols. The ability to erase logs - albeit imperfectly, given what the alert still contained - showed someone trained in Starfleet (or at least Federation) technology.

Marcus sat at his desk as the alert came through his desk, “By eck!” he said aloud and shot up to the nearest com unit, “Anders to Alden, we have a Security Breach, I need to see you in my office as soon as possible!”

-Lieutenant Junior Grade Marcus Anders: Chief of Security-

Karl hit the nearest Comm Panel [O]Johansson to Anders and Alden, you two seeing this breach on deck 11?[O] He asked, his usual cheeriness replaced with cool professionalism.

Master Chief Karl - CE

“[O]Aye lad, Me Security Desk just lit up like a Christmas Tree, care to join me and the XO in my office?[O}”

-Lieutenant Junior Grade Marcus Anders: Chief of Security-

[O]Aye sir, be there in two[C] Karl closed the channel, grabbed his kit, and jogged out of his office.

Master Chief Karl - CE

[O] Seen and checked, Lieutenant. I’m headed down. [C] Alden stood from his place and headed down to the security office.
