Yes I believe the corp has looked into that. In most secure files they
have deckers posted in the net to discurage any tampering. A corp
decker and some nice Black Ice can make a very good team.

Yes, and if the decker is equipped with that new Lone Star attack program,
then it'll be even better. An assassin decker would do quite well to pack
this type attack program, it is the only way he would be able to actually
kill another decker, rather than just dumping an opponent due to deck damage.
