TORA — Shift 16 in Review
Thirty alerts across five days, dominated by a single credential-harvest operation rotating sender domains behind stable MTAs, plus a confirmed SSH foothold on a finance workstation. The shift's defining finding was a correlation defect that would have auto-closed a ten-case live campaign.
