Grievous's computer virus
- "I've never seen a virus like this. I'm almost positive it was remotely activated—probably from Grievous's command ship as soon as we jumped into range. Whoever designed it—they're genius."
- ―Republic Lieutenant Avrey
This computer virus was newly developed by the Confederacy of Independent Systems at the time of the Clone Wars. Once the virus infiltrated the computer system of a starship, it could jam all communication systems of the same.
Confederate General Grievous deployed the virus for the first time, after a Confederate agent smuggled the virus aboard various ships of the Galactic Republic's fleet. During the Battle of Kothlis, he remotley activated the virus which jammed the whole communication between the Republic forces. The Republic fleet proceeded further against the Confederate battleships and their technicians could restore the communication by using older crystal bio-anode circiutries which were not affected by the virus. Thereby the Confederate forces withdrew.
