Pivots were a series of virus-generated code segments found in post-revolutionary America. The Pivots were mainly used to hack into the Animus' core programming, allowing the user to upload his own Animus sessions as well as genetic memories to the "cloud". In late 2012, an Abstergo engineer used a "worm" virus to hack the Animus 3.0, thus uploading the genetic memories of Desmond Miles to the Abstergo Servers. The virus failed, resulting in two pivots located in the already rendered city of Boston. The user had to locate the other ten pivots by "triangulating" the rest. After collecting all twelve pivots, Desmond's genetic memories were succesfully uploaded to the cloud, allowing multiple Abstergo employees to acces them, specifically the memories of Edward Kenway, during the Golden Age of Piracy.
