The Halcyon Security Corporation solved this problem by handing it to their R&D team's fledgling A.I. The Halcyon Systems R1 was wired into every facet of the company's secret testing complex. Over the years, it was continually upgraded to deal with the ever more powerful and bizarre denizens of the facility.
