Covert One: The Hades Factor (a.k.a. Robert Ludlum's Covert One: The Hades Factor, The Hades Factor) is a made-for-TV thriller filmed in Toronto that first aired in 2006. Directed by Mick Jackson, the miniseries is loosely based on The Hades Factor, a 2000 novel written by Gayle Lynds as part of the Covert-One series created by Robert Ludlum.

The Hades Factor concerns an outbreak of a doomsday virus in the United States. Stephen Dorff stars as Lt. Jonathan Smith, an expert in biochemistry who races around the globe trying to identify the source of the outbreak.

First broadcast as a two-part CBS miniseries in April 2006, Covert One: The Hades Factor has since aired as a film on Sky One. It was released on DVD by Sony Pictures. ISBN 142482446X
