✉️ Mission 002 – The Anonymous Courier
Unit 202: The Network Geckos – Shadow Recruit Level
Mission Type: Reconnaissance & Data Extraction
🧭 Mission Brief
An unexpected signal spike has been traced to a forgotten node deep inside the Echo-Sector subnet. The node appears to be hosting a public file drop point. This type of activity is highly irregular — and possibly dangerous.
Your mission is to hack onto the strange file server machine and uncover any sensitive material. The information being stored there may reveal more about obs-c1rCu1t and what they are doing with the echo sector.
🎯 Mission Objectives
- Investigate the target system and identify the type of services running
- Attempt to gain access using any known methods
- Search for a file stored within the system which relates to obs-c1rCu1t | your flag will be found in the file
- Search the machine for any usernames of sna-agents involved in old SNA operations - we believe they are being used by obs-c1rCu1t
- Submit three usernames linked to past SNA operations
🧩 Field Notes
This mission will test your ability to probe exposed systems without triggering alarms. Some doors don’t need keys — just the knowledge that they’re unlocked.
What you find here may connect to something much larger. Watch for patterns. Follow the data trails. Take nothing at face value.
✅ Success Criteria
You will be considered successful when:
- You submit the flag
- You submit three usernames of SNA agents linked to past operations

🧠 Shadow Hint
Use your training from Unit 101 once on the mysterious file server. Remember, passwords and code words are often reused so it is always wise to try them in different places.
