'''IDRIS''' is an acronym for the system in use by the Colonials to handle [[FTL]] jump calculations within {{dis|Cyrannus|Deadlock}}. At its core, it is a complex networked computerized system that aggregates and calculates information recorded via sensors, broadcast relays, and astrological and ship-transit databases.<ref>See: [[:File:BSGD - Loading Screen - IDRIS.png|''Deadlock''{{'|s}} loading screen factoid.]]</ref>
[[File:BSGD - Intelligence Screen.jpg|thumb|SIGINT Advisory table on the Intelligence screen (''[[Battlestar Galactica Deadlock]]'').]]


This form of [[w:crowd computing|crowd computing]] allows FTL capable ships to extend the [[Red Line]] considerably, as ship-based computers consist of possibly outdated information that would reduce the Red Line. Extension of the Red Line allows for longer jumps, whereas reduction adds additional jumps and re-calculations for each jump, and thus IDRIS eliminates and optimizes jumps with crowd sourced information.  
'''SIGINT''' is an acronym for the '''Signals and Intelligence''' division of the [[Colonial Fleet (Deadlock)|Colonial Fleet]], which aggregates and disseminates intercepted information during the [[First Cylon War]] thereby aiding in planning both offensive and defensive missions throughout the [[Cyrannus (Deadlock)|Cyrannus]] system.


== IDRIS and the Cylon War ==
This feature was rolled out in the December 2017 ''[[Battlestar Galactica Deadlock: Reinforcement Pack]]'' update, and can be accessed through the "Intelligence" screen in ''[[Daidalos]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki> [[CIC]].


As the {{dis|First Cylon War|Deadlock}} waged onward and outward throughout Cyrannus, {{dis|Cylon|Deadlock}}s began attacking this system to hinder the Colonial's war effort as {{dis|Colonial Fleet|Deadlock}} and the [[Articles of Colonization]] were established.
== SIGINT Advisories ==


The first of the known cyber-warfare attacks against IDRIS spawns the [[Skirmish at Caprica Terminal]], where Cylons attempt to keep ''[[Daidalos]]'' within the [[Helios Alpha]] system following the delivery of ''{{dis|Athena|Deadlock}}'' to {{dis|Picon|Deadlock}}. This attempt leads to the destruction of affected satellites, and the increased use of planets in the [[Starlanes]] between the Helioses due to IDRIS's diminished performance.
The SIGINT Advisory is updated during each turn, and may consist of one or more of the following update types:


The second major attempt occurs at [[Caprica Terminal]], where [[Clothos]] returns ''{{dis|Galactica|Deadlock}}'' and her remaining crew there. [[Battle at Caprica Terminal|During the recovery of ''Galactica,'']] [[Praetor]] [[Samanta Agathon]] of the [[Caprican Legionnaires]] discovers the addition of networked terminals throughout the station broadcasting erroneous waste data into IDRIS. As a result of this pervasive threat, Agathon orders the destruction of Caprica Terminal.  
* Officers that are ready for promotion, once their Experience Points reach the next promotion tier.
* New blueprints available to be unlocked via the redemption of [[Requisition Points]].
* Cylon fleet movements. These can be exact, pointing to a specific point, or generalized as a warning that random attacks may occur.
* [[Resource Mission]]s.  


The Colonies later dismantle the entire system to prevent further Cylon cyber warfare attacks (''[[Battlestar Galactica Deadlock]]'').

== References ==
* The SIGINT feature was announced in 16 November 2017 "Dev Diary" entry.
