Cortical datasplint

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The cortical datasplint was an interesting and unusual piece of cybernetic technology which allowed the user to store large amounts of information within the brain . This allowed sensitive information to be stored in a safe location and did not require access through a computer. This allowed the user to store the information and then 'forget it' knowing that they could retrieve it at any time through the datasplint. As they could be accessed through the brain, these implants also contained trauma sensors as well as encryption data that would detect signs of torture and would further encrypt the information preventing interrogators from accessing it.
