Feb 18, 2014 at 18:50 comment added Tynam @BrianBallsun-Stanton Draupadi had found the right place, but missed the other use - besides going from Spotted to Covert, you can use Upgrading Status to escalate privilege from Covert to Hidden. Hidden intruders have effectively rooted the system; they act with admin access rights but need not show up as an admin-level user.

Feb 3, 2014 at 4:25 comment added Draupadi @BrianBallsun-Stanton None that I'm aware of. I may have missed it, however. I never used rules for that, and I mainly pulled out the book here to confirm my memory and grab page references.
Feb 3, 2014 at 4:23 comment added Draupadi @Magician Yes. However, failing those roles will alert the system to unusual activity and if the system is in a state of alert you take the penalty to such attempts.
Feb 3, 2014 at 4:18 comment added Brian Ballsun-Stanton Is there a pattern for escalating privileges once connected?
Feb 3, 2014 at 3:58 comment added Magician So I can either take a -30 penalty while beating the firewall to gain admin rights, or make a couple of checks once connected as a user to do admin-type things, with corresponding penalties for the specific activity. Is that right?
