The AEGIS Capital Ship Security Facility is a data site that appears as a level III data signature in Low and Null security space.
Site notes:
- The site has an invisible 30 minute timer which starts on warp in. The site will despawn once that timer is up.
- A data analyzer is required to access site rewards. The hackable key container is a 90 HP Red Core hack, the Security Vault in the second room is a 120 HP Red Core hack. (100 HP Firewall, 70 HP Antivirus, 70 HP Virus Suppressor, 90 HP Restoration Node). Tech II Data Analyzer and high hacking skills are strongly recommended.
- No combat is required, so exploration/covops frigates are appropriate. Covert ops frigates are the most optimal for this site due to 5 second cloak delay + covops cloak. You may run it with other ships but the cloak delay will be too long to attempt pulsing the MWD between decloak cycles without aggressing the NPCs in both rooms, and without a covert ops cloak the speed penalty will cause you to run out of time before the site despawns. Running the site without a cloak to begin with is impossible.
- The proximity mines have an activation range of 10km and hurt. The mines in the second room do >30k damage.
- After acquiring the AEGIS Coded Security Key CSSF-ENS do not leave the facility or it will disappear from your cargo. Slow-boat to the next gate rather than warp out and back.
- All hostile NPCs in this site are diamond rats and are thus visible on the Directional Scanner. They will only spawn in once someone initiates warp to the site so a potential hunter might be able to tell if someone is attempting to run the site if the NPCs are visible on D-Scan and are lined up with the site.
Warp-in
| Message upon initiating warp |
|---|
| A Data Analyzer module will be invaluable in uncovering the secrets that are likely hidden here. Discretion is advised. |
Acceleration Gate 20 km from warp-in.
Room 1
Firstly you should head to the AEGIS Encrypted Key Storage where you get the key to the gate. After getting the key you can head to the gate. Note: the gate will be ~175km from the Key and you will be targeted by the Stasis Tower during hacking, meaning you can't cloak again after. You can't warp out of the site without losing the key so using fast ship with MWD (+ Overdrive Injector System if you want) to counteract the webifier is advised.
WARNING: Failing a single hacking attempt on the Encrypted Key Storage container will spawn response fleet. The response fleet composition is roughly the same as in the second room and will make it impossible to get to the gate safely, even if you manage to acquire the key afterwards. Consider the site forfeit if you fail the Key Storage hack. There is roughly a 10-15 second delay before the response fleet arrives - use that time to warp out and save your ship.
| In local on warp-in |

| The vault's emergency lockdown procedures take roughly 30 minutes, after which it will be inaccessible. |
Room 2
You should stay cloaked to not aggress the fleet before reaching the data can. You can uncloak for 5 seconds to activate the propulsion module, but note that active MWD enlarges your signature radius and makes you easier to target. The NPCs' scan resolution is low enough that they will not be able to target you if you activate MWD provided you reactivate your cloak first.
The minefield in this room is significantly denser than in the first room and you land in the middle of it on warp-in. The Security Vault will be around 100km away from warp-in but will almost always be surrounded from most angles by mines which will block you from simply burning to the container safely. You generally will need to burn out of the minefield and get close to the Vault from small gaps between the mines.
Once you decloak to hack the Security Vault you will only have a safe time window to attempt ~2 hacks (as of 22 January 2026 unknown if failing a hack has any penalty) before the NPCs get close enough to point you. The Enforcers' warp disruption range is 56 km and they will approach you at 1450m/s, leaving little more than a minute to grab your loot and escape after they've begun to aggress you ~8 seconds after decloaking.
Lock time seems to be inconsistent as of time of writing (22 January 2026). Buzzard with no signature radius modifiers stayed decloaked for ~30 seconds to hack and warped out without ever being targeted. Running a later site the same ship fit was instalocked immediately after starting the hack ~8 seconds after decloaking.
