Where This Clue Appears
The CodyCross clue “Compromised computer networks” is answered by BOTNETS, a 7-letter entry in the Professions world, group 1529, puzzle 3. The full puzzle page lists every other clue in that same grid, which is usually what you want if more than one row is blocking you.
Check the letter count before you commit. CodyCross fixes the length of every row before you type, and the game reuses the same clue wording in different worlds with entirely different solutions — so a clue that looks identical to one you have already solved may want a different word here. If your grid shows a different number of squares than the 7 above, you are almost certainly on the same clue from another world.
You can browse the whole game from the world index — 108 worlds, 2,144 groups and 10,716 puzzles — or check the separate daily crossword archive.

3 Tips for CodyCross
The board is the whole puzzle
Every answer is built from what the level actually shows you and nothing else. Counting that first rules out most of what comes to mind, which is quicker than trying words and being rejected.
Place the longest answer first
Long answers use up the awkward letters and leave a set that spells the short ones out for you. Starting long is consistently faster than sweeping for three-letter words.
Neighbouring levels are the best hint
Difficulty climbs gradually rather than in jumps, so the levels either side of a hard one reuse its patterns. They are more useful than any hint the game sells you.
How to Solve a CodyCross Level
The order that clears a board fastest.
Read what you are given
Letters, tiles or clues — count them before you start. That constraint is the strongest filter you have.
Anchor with the answers you are sure of
Each confirmed answer narrows the ones it touches, so the easy entries are worth the first minute.
Work outwards
Follow the chain from what you have placed rather than jumping around the board.
Verified Answers, Not Guesses
How we verify these answers
Every answer on this page is read from the game's own puzzle data rather than retyped from another site, and is checked against what the board actually provides — so nothing listed can use a letter the level does not give you. The counts shown are computed from the stored data, not typed in by hand.
