Solve the Vex Orb Puzzles in Variant Security Protocol

Objectives:
- Defeat enemies
- Enter three access codes
- You can see a set of Vex orbs of various shapes appear along columns scattered on the platform when you first land. Pay attention to the order the shapes appear in from top to bottom. The column in the center of the area will materialize larger Vex orbs of the same variety of shapes. Shoot the Vex Orbs on the center column in the same order that other columns appears.
- For example, if one of the columns in this area has a series of Vex Orbs that appear as "Circle, Circle, Square, Diamond" from top to bottom, you would shoot the Circle Vex Orb that appears on the center column first, followed by Circle, Square, Diamond.

After surviving and solving the Vex Orb puzzles, you will move onto an arena with more enemies. As you kill enemies in the next arena, they will drop purple orbs. Collect these purple orbs. Interact with the glowing column in the center to “deposit data”.
Once data has been collected, a cylindrical bunker opens up in the center of the room. Jump down into this hole before the timer runs out to avoid being eliminated.
You will be teleported to another area, where you must repeat the activity again and eliminate the Data Nullifier enemy.

This next area is a platforming section. Proceed through cautiously, until you find a portal that teleports you into the Reroute Dispatch arenas.
Defeat Brakion
The last section of the NODE.OVRD.AVALON Secret Mission tells you to Override Brakion’s Access Gate. Defeat the enemies and deal damage to the final boss, Brakion, all while solving the same type of Vex Orb Puzzles that you encountered at the start of the Variant Security Protocol area.
