Although it may sound counter-intuitive, it is the deeper internal structure surrounding her cybernetic brain which has been designed for durability and limited access, while the "superficial" function of her exterior is designed to allow her to blend into humanoid environments.
Although it may sound counter-intuitive, it is the deeper internal structure surrounding her cybernetic brain which has been designed for durability and limited access, while the "superficial" function of her exterior is designed to allow her to blend into humanoid environments.
'''Externals and Bionanetics'''
Network access is restricted by proprietary cabling whose design is classified and available to CSO, CEO and CMO aboard [[USS Discovery-B]] and Epsilon Lab on [[DS285]]. Her external surface in contact with airborne environment is an organic, malleable compound designed to instantly become an adhesive and detour attempts as disassembly. Beneath this skin-like surface is a duranium shield that acts as a sensor-resistant material, making premeditated tampering with a tricorder difficult.  This highly resistant duranium is also machined into a single-molding that surrounds the positronic unit. The malleable compound can be stimulated to create new identities, although it cannot obfuscate her positronic field.
Per Intelligence regulations, the positronic shield could not be obfuscated, should the Delta unit be lost to enemy hands. However, the synthetic lifesign is protected from portable sensor equipment with the use a sensor-obfuscating alloy developed from materials salvaged on USS Voyager. Although it cannot totally obfuscate the positronic field, the alloy is embedded into a highly durable nanetic molding into the Delta exo-skeletal structure, using quantum mechanics to successfully interfere with most sub-spatial signals, thus, censoring complex data that reveals the unique reading given by the synthethic lifesign. Even so, the synthetic organism has the unexpected ability to evade all known types of lifesign sensors.
'''Limits Against Directed Energy Diffusion'''
The Delta series uses the same duranium-based alloys used to construct many types of Federation-compliant starships and Starfleet-grade housing. Over seventy percent of her construction is designed to withstand continuous stress and/or diffuse directed energy within the standard absorption rate of an industrial-grade warp-capable hull.
Although sturdy, Epsilon-Delta is not totally indestructible. She is vulnerable to long-term concentrations of ethereal or directed energy, including energy emitted from phasers, disruptor fire, quantum explosives and matter/anti-matter collisions.
'''Water Survival'''
Epsilon is technically certified in water survival techniques and she can travel in most liquid environments plus 1 unit above standard starship's gravity at an average of 1.07 knots. However, her capacity to remain in a high volume of water exceeding her mass decreases exponentially over time. Most of Epsilon-Delta's solid mass is tonnage from duranium-based materials protecting her positronic brain.
Epsilon Lab R&D continues to test her capacity to operate in liquid environments within her existing design. This weight is compensated in liquid environments only through continuous use of a single experimental anti-gravity module powered by the primary battery. Energy efficiency continues to outweigh the collateral cost of deploying Delta in liquid environments. In summary, although Epsilon-Delta can remain afloat by continuously converting hydrogen into energy, she is still subject to the laws of conservation of energy.
