Override

Powers: Lightning Speed, Can Overwrite Data,
Excessive Heat and Meltdown

Riding at extreme speeds on his one-wheel, Override is a formidable cyber threat. He is able to traverse fibre optic bus-ways at light speed, while also wielding the power to send your system into an overloaded state, causing high temperatures and a complete meltdown.

Powers:

Lightning Speed:

Override can travel through the Dataverse on pulses of light at incredible speeds.

Can Overwrite Data:

Overwriting data, leaking sensitive information, installing malware, and even giving a hacker remote control of a system, are all part of Override’s destructive arsenal.

Can Cause Data Overruns:

Using buffer overflows allows Override to control or crash system processes, or to modify its internal variables.

Excessive Heat and Meltdown:

Override can over-tax your computer’s resources to the point where components overheat causing severe system failure and eventual meltdown.

During his most infamous attack on the White House, in 2006, the Department of Justice estimated the cost of removing the Override virus from their internal networks was in the range of $50,000 per system. Extrapolating on these numbers, it was estimated for the United States Congress that the total economic impact was in the range of $20,000,000.
