At base, it was working, too, at full tilt. Sense had all available resources gnawing away at the enemy’s hard lines, incredible to behold if one could only glance at all the electronic channels and digital attacks it was coordinating. This was no brute force effort. It was using what it knew about the people who programmed it as a means of figuring out just what they had written in place of any electronic barrier. First, using any public knowledge, and then deeper based on what it found out in strata previous, through the less well-protected channels in order to delve into the psychology of these defenses. Layer upon layer it bit deeper and deeper, until, finally — the crack of the dam, the breach of the interior, the hard lines broken. The monitors on both sides were stunned. On either side, just what implications this was going to have: not only on for this specific fight, but what this meant for all the warfare that was to come from this point on.
