Your skill level also determines the amount of credits that can be extracted from an ATM via hacking as opposed to entering the account login. Additionally, the ability to control turrets is available starting at the advanced level.
Note that since turrets can be disabled by simply disabling the controlling security camera, the advanced skill level is not necessary to merely disable turrets.
Upon reaching the trained level in the computer skill, you gain the ability to hack automated teller machines ATMs. The amount of credits you can steal depends on your skill level. Hence, at the trained level, logging in with a PIN number is more lucrative than hacking, but the opposite is true at the master level. After successfully hacking into an ATM once, it goes out of service and cannot be operated again in any way. At the level of trained or higher, the player can hack into security consoles to open and unlock doors, and disable security cameras.
Upon reaching the advanced level, the player gains the ability to set the targeting parameters of automated turrets to "Allies", "Enemies", "Bypassed" inactive , or "Everything. Numerous computers belonging to various characters can be found throughout the game. Hacking into these will usually yield e-mails that are sometimes useful. Information terminals cannot be hacked, as they are meant to be accessed by the public.
While hacking, Jensen will become visible and exposed, regardless of his position when first accessing the terminal or computer. Enemies can and will fire upon Jensen in this state, and sustaining any damage will knock him out of the hacking map. It is therefore advisable to work extremely fast when hacking in dangerous areas. Also, if cloaking is unavailable or insufficient, you can also use boxes or other obstacles to block the sightlines of those who can see you, including cameras, turrets, etc.

Even after obtaining access codes and passwords that would allow Jensen to bypass hacking, it is still advisable for the player to hack whenever possible, as this will always obtain additional EXP and often credits and software as well.
The first thing to do when hacking a computer is: Stop. Don't do anything. Just look. Familiarize yourself with the layout. You have time, there is no chance of being detected while doing nothing at least not by the security server. Answer the important questions: Where are the target nodes? Where are the datastores if you want them? Is the security node reachable or behind a one-way path? Which ways will the security node take to reach your point of entry, in case you're noticed it will always take ALL available paths, so there is no guessing involved here?
Don't forget, that you are not limited to one action at a time. If there are three reachable nodes you can capture, you can start with the first one and start the 2nd and 3rd one while the first one is still being captured.
You could also start to fortify nodes, even if there were a dozen captures going on at the moment. The limit is your ability to press buttons quickly. The most basic tactic is trying to not raise the alert. This means, always trying to find the easiest way, taking the way with the lowest ranking nodes on it the lower the rank of the node, the lower the chance to raise the alert. Depending on your play style, you might only want to reach the target nodes as soon as possible or take all the datastores while you go.

On level 1, fortification is only something for the emergency, as the chances of getting noticed are way too high so I would suggest using it only if already noticed. So if you want to use it, it is highly recommended to update this aug. You can either start fortifying nodes when you're noticed - the emergency way - or right at the start - the defensive way.
