	A retinal scan is probably the hardest biometric to acquire and the hardest to fake. It can only be recorded with a purpose-built retinal scanner, and it requires the subject to remain still while the image (both a visual capture of the inside of the eye and a thermal scan of the blood vessels behind it) is captured. Actually making use of the scan requires a relatively uncommon cybereye modification, Retinal Duplication<ref name="retinal adjuster" />{{src\|sr5\|ref=453}}.

	DNA scanners generally work by breath (sampling tissue and saliva aspirated into a tube) or a small blood sample. Creating a serum to fake out one of these sensors involves getting a sample from the target. Blood is best, but skin, hair, or other bodily fluids can do the job. The Rating of the Sample is based on it's age and size — a single drop of fresh blood is Rating 6, while a week old hair follicle is only Rating 1.

	The extra paranoid may equip their maglocks with Anti-Tamper Systems. Identifying the presence of such a system requires a {{Test\|Locksmith + Intuition [Mental] (Anti-Tamper Rating) ~~Test~~}}. Failing to identify the system means that an alarm is triggered when the character attempts to crack the case as described above. If identified, add the Anti-Tamper Rating to the required threshold for the Extended Test.		The extra paranoid may equip their maglocks with Anti-Tamper Systems.

If identified, add the Anti-Tamper Rating to the required threshold for the Extended Test.

	The Anti-Tamper Rating also determines how "paranoid" the system is when it fails to authenticate an access attempt. If present and authentication fails as described above, make a Test using the Anti-Tamper Rating × 2 against a Threshold equal to the false authentication source's Rating. If the Anti-Tamper System is successful, it identifies the fake as an attempted breach and sounds the alarm. If it fails, it assumes user error and asks for a repeat.
