Does an icebreaker need to match all of an ICE's subtypes to break it?

The rulebook covers this directly (Icebreakers).

No. It's enough that the icebreaker's ability names any one subtype the ICE has, such as barrier on a barrier/AP ICE. An ability that doesn't name a subtype can break subroutines on any ICE.
