How to farm Security loot
Loot tags tell you which containers an item can spawn in, not a single fixed spot. Pick a map with plenty of checkpoints, guard huts, police posts and locked security rooms, clear the containers in those buildings first, and leave the open ground for the way out. Higher-tier areas and map events raise the odds of the Rare, Epic and Legendary items on this list.
Other loot areas: ARC, Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Mechanical, Electrical, Technological, Medical, Old World, Exodus, Nature, Raider.
