Debuggers
The Debuggers are a law enforcement agency specifically dedicated to dealing with malware, shades, and rogue process. Though they are supposedly a neutral faction, they are very much subject to corruption. Currently they seem to be working with the Amber Knights to hunt down shades and rogue process in The Boneyard and The Hive. Their efforts are largely concentrated in the Boneyard, cleaning Glitch Virus from junk data and in the Peer-to-Pier, preventing its spread.
