Computer spikes, also known as data spikes, were electronic devices that, upon insertion into a computer, allowed the user to access classified data and programs. Spikes could be set to initiate a program or be operated manually, and plugged into the same kind of sockets as scomp links. They were often used in infiltrations and thefts.
