Cyberpunk 2077, Breach Protocols Explained (Hacking) - Getting the Most Out of Breach/Access Points

Breach or Access Points can be hacked with breach protocols. They can give pretty insane amounts of money, items, and other perks/upgrade if you know how to get the most out of them. This video explains how to do just that!

Things explained/covered:
How to locate access points
How to do breach protocols
What a daemon is and how to get more
How to increase sequence buffer
How to upload multiple daemons in a single breach protocol

Have a great day, and as always, thanks for watching!

Quick update: a couple things!

Clarification: these things are called daemons which people in the game pronounce “demon” and they are a cyberpunk term for “virus” like a computer virus you are uploading.
Edit: apparently daemons are real things - thanks to commenters who let me know!

Also:
I said you can unlock new breach protocols in the skill tree but I’m not sure that they show up just anywhere. I unlocked the deep sleep / shut all cameras down breach and it only seems to be an option when I initiate a breach on a security camera through scanning it- still useful though. But yeah, the different unlocks in the breach protocol tree might not apply to all access points, rather it’s to specific types/ specific breaches that they will apply too.

You explained this so much better than the tutorial. Thank you.

Thanks for confirming you can't always get all 3 daemons successfully, I though I was just stupid.
Bit of info I can share is that your base buffer size can be increased with a better cyberware deck as well.
Also its a good habit to read the fine print of each daemon before starting, since they tell what rewards they offer (more relevant to mission specific breach instances)

Life saver. I was getting frustrated with this mini-game. Thanks for the quick video upload explaining and demonstrating this.

I was passing these by pure dumb luck prior to this vid

[JJGunner]

I figure any video that causes me to say is a damn fine video. Thank you.

[gummibear]

I just can't wrap my head around this. Im still utterly confused...

[jasonchristopher]

I’m 6 hours into my first playthrough and still had no idea what the hell I was supposed to be doing with these. Got lucky a time or two. THANK YOU!

[deadend]

The devs should include your video in the tutorial. Thank you for posting this helpful guide 😊

[charlesmarchand]

Much better quality than the other tutorial I saw, straight to the point and you explain the hard ones

[truecraftingking]

Every time I failed I questioned weather or not I deserved to call myself sentient let alone intelligent, thank you for the vid it was better then the actual in game tutorial, this is the best buggiest game I have ever played and I love it

[sydhamelin]

Super helpful, right to the point, and a great plethora of examples.

My hangup was that I rarely get all 3 daemons, but this verifies that it's just part of the game. Thanks!

[DaveRueck]

really appreciate this video. this was killing all joy in the game trying to figure this out

[Cynder]

Thank you, the game never really gave a proper introduction to these.

[evanstein]

This is actually really fun when you figure it out, a bit like Deus Ex's hacking

[PajamaSamurai]

Thank you so much for this video. I figured out how to do one at a time, but I had no idea how the buffer worked or whether I could get all hacks done at once. This is so helpful.

[mystikmeg]

I’ve watched a few, this is the first one that actually makes sense. I think so many other content creators just get a video out of gameplay without bothering to explain it for dummies. Thanks

[nickalika]

finally someone who explaind this in a comprehensive manner!

[mtaff]

Just started playing the game a week ago. Everyone should watch this video! It is super helpful. Thank you!

I looked at half a dozen guides and watched 3 other videos before finding this. Thank you its shatter, highlighting the screen as you described the steps really helped me understand. Thank you thank you thank you
