Official Description

“	We've received reports that the pirate faction is planning to move against Gemini Station, specifically, [N8]. Under normal circumstances, that'd be fine, but we will need the AI for our own purposes at some point. We have a virus we'd like you to upload to as many pirate ships as you can. It will nullify the pirate virus, but make them think it's still active. It will also alert [N8] to the pirate attack. Finally, it will install a backdoor into [N8]'s systems that we will need at a later date. Quickly, go plant the virus while we still have time.	”
