The Covenant inter-ship battlenet has a curious feature: a system of communicating orders throughout the Covenant fleet. Transmissions carry embedded sub communiques containing orders for ships to various jumps, rendezvouses and tasks. The efficient system allows orders to circulate more quickly throughout the Covenant. However, it seems to have poor counter-intrusion security as AIs like Cortana seem to have no problem in hacking it.
