It's a network that's 'detached', or 'segregated', or whatevered from the
rest of the world, so it's 'largely immune to viruses'. That likely means
they have:
1. NO logging
2. NO anti-virus
3. NO hardening
The very fact that these systems are on a segregated network means they are
probably more frail, and more susceptible to viruses, than a normal person's
laptop.
Immune to viruses... What a crock of shit. My bet is that it's coming from
the planes.
