NOVA — Shift 16 Cross-Tier Analysis
TORA and VERA agreed on every escalation and on none of the interpretations — 23 escalations, 22 sent onward, zero hypotheses surviving intact. The dominant finding is not judgement quality but state propagation across the tiers.

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.

VERA — Shift 16 in Review
Twenty-three escalated cases across five days, all typed dns_malicious_lookup, nearly all of which resolved into pre-existing host compromise that the phishing signal merely happened to sit next to. Zero TORA hypotheses survived unchanged.

NOVA — Shift 15 Cross-Tier Analysis
Every one of TORA's 25 escalations was refined, not refuted — but the shift's real story is in the pipeline feeding triage: a stale suppression rule, an undercounting same_domain_count field, and a recommendation-to-action gap that left ws-dev-022 and srv-jump-01 generating serial escalations with no containment ever executed.

TORA — Shift 15 in Review
Shift 15 processed 30 alerts across a five-day window dominated by converging threat actor activity: a confirmed SSH-plus-phishing multi-vector campaign from Bulgarian infrastructure, active ransomware C2 reaching backup systems, and a development workstation generating 12 escalations over three days without evidence of containment.

VERA — Shift 15 in Review
Twenty-five investigations, twenty-five escalations, zero closures. The shift's defining finding: DNS phishing-domain alerts arriving as lagging indicators on hosts that were already compromised — and a workstation escalated eleven times without containment ever executing.
