Keira nodded back to Hammerfield and waited for the remainder of those invited to show up. Slowly the small group of Engineering’s leadership gathered together. Some small conversations started between colleagues. She waited a few moments for conversations naturally end or slow down before speaking.

“Looks like everyone I was expecting,” Keira said, and waited a few moments for the conversations to cease. She was never one to mince words, so she got right to it. “We had an eventful night. I brought you all in for this meeting because of the events that transpired. The holodeck, specifically number three and transporters were used to kidnap members of our crew to amuse the whims of a mad-woman. The Captain ordered an overhaul of the holodeck. That means a level four diagnostic needs to be performed on all holosystems. Because of the involvement of the transporters, I’m adding that to the list.” She took a sip of her hot caffeinated beverage before continuing.

“In addition to locking command out of said systems, and using the holodeck to injure and kill our crew, a malicious sub-routine was added that caused a feedback loop destroying the main console in the Operations Office. So our checks in addition to the standard level four diagnostics will also be looking for additional hardware or malicious worms, viruses or foreign code that could hamper function or give control to any outside organization or individuals.” She said. “Any questions, problems, concerns or addendums so far?”

After questions or comments Keira laid out the basic plan. “Brightwood has been kind enough to volunteer to run engineering with a handful of enlisted, leaving everyone else to perform the diagnostics. We will be checking everything, opening every hatch, hand scanning every part. Luckily we only will have to disassemble something if you get an abnormal reading. If we keep everything on schedule and everything checks out, we should be able to complete all the diagnostics by 2200 tonight. It will of course take longer if we run into any problems.”
