Walkthrough

    Go through the wooden door at the bottom.
  12. 12
    Go right after the wooden door and take out the guard ahead with a headshot (a shot that lands on the enemy's head, usually an instant kill).
  13. 13
    Take out the second guard who comes to his rescue.
  14. 14
    Go back a bit and use the glass elevator near the wooden door.
  15. 15
    After the ride, head out of the elevator and down the nearby steps, killing all guards with helmets.
  16. 16
    Take a right at the bottom of the steps and enter a small room with a computer and desk.
  17. 17
    Press B to open the multi-colored wall, revealing a hidden door.
  18. 18
    Kill all enemies inside the hidden area.
  19. 19
    Work your way around until you reach a blue-ish elevator.
  20. 20
    Take the blue-ish elevator to complete your objective.
Tips
  • Watch out for cameras: one is on the dataDyne rooftop and can be shot from a hallway, another is near the bottom of a side ramp and can be destroyed.
  • Only exit the level after completing ALL other objectives.
