Command and Security Access Protocols

Access to all Starfleet computer systems is highly regulated. A standard set of authorization codes have been programmed into the starboard and engineering computer cores of all ships in order to stop any undesired access to the systems.

Alerts
     

This is a moderate level of alert. Shift on duty remains, preparing the duty station for battle readiness, warming up equipment and securing all loose and /or fragile items. Incoming shift goes on duty and joins the prior Duty Shift at the duty station.

This is a high level of alert. Third shift in rotation goes on duty, joining the previous two shifts at the duty station. All stations report readiness to the Bridge when fully manned. Personnel designated Damage Control auxiliaries will report to their Damage Control stations.

All personnel drop whatever they are doing and report to their assigned Lifeboat Pod for evacuation. The only exceptions are Alpha Shift Security personnel, on-duty Bridge crew, on-duty Medical staff and designated auxiliary craft Command pilots.

Under extreme circumstances, the Captain of a starship may opt to destroy the ship rather than have it captured by hostile forces. This normally requires the confirmation of both the Executive Officer and Operations Officer. The orders are given to the computer verbally, and confirmed by voiceprint and security access code. In addition, confirmation by handprint and/or retinal scan may be required. In particularly hostile conditions, the Ops Officer or both the XO and Ops may predelegate their confirmation to the Captain, who can then act unilaterally.
