Aisha Hunter

Aisha Hunter was an undergraduate student at Vault-Tec University before the Great War.

Background
Aisha was a senior in Erik DeMarcos' VP499 class in 2076. She developed an emergency protocol (AV-992) for eliminating computer viruses in a Vault. Specifically, the protocol would automatically eliminate simple viruses and used adaptive monitoring to respond to a virus. In the event of a more complicated virus taking hold, the protocol would use analytic systems to "deconstruct the virus, identify vulnerabilities, and coordinate appropriate scan and repair procedures."

Professor DeMarcos gave Aisha's project an F, commenting that it was "by far, the most over-engineered protocol in [the] entire database." DeMarcos saw the protocol as unnecessarily complex; although redundancy planning would be favorable to him, the protocol's level of overlapping was excessive to him, which greatly disappointed him, considering it came from a senior student. In particular, the assumption that her student protocol could defeat a viral algorithm capable of overtaking a Vault Mainframe was laughable to DeMarcos. Despite her failing grade, Aisha's program was later included in the database for the Vault-Tec Emergency Management System, and it was used as an example protocol in Vault 96, which DeMarcos was the overseer of.

Appearances
Aisha Hunter is mentioned only in Fallout 76, introduced in the Locked & Loaded update.
