The first few hours in Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core will have you come up against some terminals that will require you to unlock the Security Override Alpha. However, the game doesn’t explicitly tell you what needs to be done at first.
This guide will clear all your doubts when it comes to getting the Security Override Alpha.

How to get Security Override Alpha in Deep Rock Galactic
The key to unlock the Security Override Alpha is locked behind four different Intel tasks to complete on your runs.
Here’s the list of Intel tasks to complete.
Reclaim a Complexity 2 facility
In simple words, Complexity refers to the difficulty of a map. You can check the Complexity of a mission before starting a run (denoted by the yellow triangles). You’ll need to start and reclaim a Complexity 2 facility by finishing all the levels.
Reach the bottom of a Complexity 3 facility
You can complete this by reaching the very bottom of a Complexity 3 facility. Unlike the previous task, you don’t need to actually reclaim it.
Download data from five Terminals
You’ll come across Terminals on your run. Interact with them to download the data, and do so for five of them. This will complete the Intel task.
Get 10 Expenite upgrades on a single run
Expenite is the bright green crystals that you can mine and deposit. Getting Expenite allows you to get different upgrades to improve your build. The first upgrade unlocks at 120 Expenite, but the cost goes up. You’ll need to get 10 upgrades in a single run to complete this Intel task.
When you complete Intel tasks, you’ll advance in Clearance Levels. To unlock the Security Override Alpha, you’ll need to reach and clear Clearance Level 2. Thankfully, your progression (regarding completing the Intel tasks) will carry over across multiple runs/missions. Hence, a premature death or two won’t matter much; it will just force you to spend some more time to reach the next level.
