Chang Wong is adept with computers. He uses his technical knowledge to understand the Global Community computer system and its security to alter its databases to conceal Tribulation Force activity, but Chang Wong had to be a mole in the Global Community computer department who received that opportunity because he received the mark of loyalty against his will. Naomi Tiberias is also an expert on computers who can also break into the Global Community security system. That episode made Chang Wong anxious because it made him think that the Global Community may be on to him.
