    I'm not totally sure what is required to achieve this but I will state the bits I know and what I believe, the bits I'm unsure of are in underlined.

    NOTE 1: As confirmed by Adibou you can use the kill switch to gain this achievement instead of the bomb disarm thus allowing you to choose if you want to do Mission 11 or Mission 12.

    NOTE 2: As M33TSPINNER confirmed you can just knock Marchenko out without using the disarm device.

    During the last mission once you reach the catering room and had the cut scene the game will tell you to choose between stopping Marchenko or rescuing Brown, choose rescue Brown and make your way to the objective. If you chose to do M12 make sure to give Miller the antidote after the cut-scene to gain another achievement.

    Once you have saved Brown you can then move on to the objective of confronting Marchenko. When you meet him during the cut scene you will be given a prompt to use the bomb disarm device or the kill switch, use it and your done. If you have none of these then either use an EMP mine or grenade on him and then go up to him and knock him out.

    The achievement should pop once the cut scene before the credits loads.

    AdibouI used Marchenko's kill switch and the achievement popped.

    No ParasiteIt totally works if you are doing the bank heist path with mission 12.
    You just have to make sure to save Brown and his people before stopping Marchenko.

    AllOvaMyselfI just fought and knocked Marchenko out and it still popped, you don't even need the disarm device...

    RDSYou CAN get spotted when going to rescue Brown. Marchenko will get impatient, but he won't blow up the towers.

    KryptinThe kill switch is not needed if you choose M12. I used an EMP grenade on Marchenko and knocked him out which let me also get the Pacifist achievement.

    VGM 007Apparently there is a secret time limit on reaching Marchenko if you rescue to the delegates first. I took my time, avoiding guards, taking some out quietly. When I got to Marchenko, he blew up the buildings. According to a post on gamefaqs, you have 10 minutes. I have an earlier save that I will attempt again while rushing through cloaked & see if it changes.

    Edit: Rushing through in cloaked mode I was able to get to Marchenko in time. I would suggest having plenty of biocells (10-15) and just go for the delegates & then straight to the boss fight. Don't waste any time with shortcuts or taking guards out.

    EarthboundXDon't worry about any time limits, I went for the delegates first, took over an hour just taking out those guards and fully exploring the area. So there must not be a timer there, least not a very strict one.

    Then when you get to the room where the delegates are, there's sort of a hidden door that leads right to Marchenko, and I mean literally right to him. I assumed I'd have to go back to the party area after saving the delegates to reach Marchenko, but nope.

    AdifelI just wanted to confirm what Earthbound mentioned in the comment above (it seemed not true since the locations should be far from each other). There is a hidden door which you can see if you look closely at your map, which leads into a hallway which has an elevator at the end. When you use the security card on the elevator the Marchenko scene starts. So the two objectives are literally 10 seconds from each other, if you go to delegates first.

    Gilbert PrimeI've tested this and found that if I entered the Exhibition Hall first, Marchenko will launch into his monologue which stops his timer. Then when the fight began, I slipped upstairs and used the secret door to rescue the delegates. Then I fought my way through the mercs just for fun and took the long way back to Marchenko. Had all the time in the world.
