And despite SYUTK's theory that they had nothing in the way of cybersecurity, I think it's more that Watts is just that good. How do we know it isn't more than that? He is apparently notorious enough that Raven Branwen knew him by sight. For someone to be so disgraced that they are globally known it is likely this was someone with significant connections in Atlas. We have no indication that Ozpin and his associates are aware of who is working with Salem. Could very well be that Watts had in the not-so-distant past worked with either the Atlesian military or the SDC and thus his ability to hack them is because he had first-hand knowledge about how their systems worked. Perhaps Watts is even someone close to Ironwood and may even be working him behind-the-scenes Grima Wormtongue-style. That would certainly be a twist and it would throw people off given what happened with Lionheart.
