The '''Data Dump Scanner''', more commonly referred to as the '''DDS''', was used by [[Abstergo Industries]] in their [[Project Legacy]].
 
Similarly to the [[Animus]], the DDS allowed Abstergo recruits to relive another person's memories, though they did not need to be blood-related to them. Memories from important individuals were collected, and assessed by a large number of participants.

Memories used in the DDS were presumably obtained through the [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]] of certain individuals. As [[Erudito]] once warned a recruit, these memories were "farmed", though the exact process of how they are obtained is unknown.<ref name="Project Legacy e-mails">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'' - [[E-mails#DDS Network|E-mails]]</ref>

The primary objective for the DDS was to allow their recruits to delve into the memories of [[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy|several figures of importance]], who could provide the company with vital information about the [[Assassins]], and the [[Pieces of Eden]], among other things.<ref name="Project Legacy">''Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy''</ref>
 
Additionally, the program had the benefit of allowing its participants to retain any skills gained through the [[bleeding effect]].<ref name="Brotherhood">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref> However, this also caused certain side effects such as nosebleeds, vertigo, nausea, or hallucinations, though the system assured its users that this was normal.<ref name="Project Legacy" />
 
The participants were also constantly observed and tracked, allowing Abstergo to assess those who were "particularly talented," and eventually recruit them into the [[Templars|Templar Order]].<ref name="Revelations">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>
