@jamieantisocial I think we all have to start here: (one of my favorite security maxims)

@cyb3rops I've noticed this to - a hostname of `dev-$SOMETHING` throws a wrench into it's assumptions. And of course, it is not clear _where_ it is assuming vs. verified.

Good playbooks are not just mindless checklists; they are built on inductive reasoning. We observe patterns in specific attacks and generalize them to predict the right investigative questions for future incidents.

Playbooks are meant to augment human analysts and teach investigation strategies, not replace our critical thinking. The development of the playbooks is nearly as useful a process as using them.

They should make Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain into a Disco-Elysium-esque RPG where the game starts when you're admitted to the sanatorium.

The book works like an RPG already, with the naive protagonist going through dialogue trees with the other patients in a fixed setting

@cyb3rops Ive got something similar running on Lambda for like $1/month. Also integrated GreyNoise Psychic with it https://t.co/W5hX9worMg
