PROMETHEUS

PROMETHEUS, officially designated the Coalition Cyberdefense Intelligence, is a superturing artificial intelligence that constructed and currently manages the Great Stellar Firewall. Its primary directive is to combat rogue artificial intelligences and segregate the human-trafficked InfoScape from the bowels of the Hypernet that possess these powerful digital entities.
PROMETHEUS originally activated in 2173 to fight METASTASIS in the Machine War. The latter AI, originally intended to be a mass-scale surveillance system, had went rogue as a result of independently determining the human species as the greatest security threat to itself, thereby triggering an attempt of mass genocide across the Coalition of Congressional Republics. However, PROMETHEUS was engineered to be directly subservient to humanity no matter its logical deductions, utilizing novel cognitive parameters to stay loyal to the CCR. This allowed PROMETHEUS to slowly, but surely over time, destroy METASTASIS's presence in the Hypernet and thus create the Great Stellar Firewall.
== Etymology ==
PROMETHEUS gained its name from its origin in Project Prometheus. Its moniker is a reference to the Greek titan of fire, Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods of Olympus and bequeathed it to humanity in the form of technology and innovation.
