Three intrusion sets already excel at getting users to approve tools and auth flows. This assessment is probabilistic: it highlights who is best positioned to adapt that tradecraft to MCP-style environments next..

🤖🔒 AI agents = privileged integrations you can’t see. After GTG-1002 + vendors pushing agent access standards, the next shoe drops: do regulators/hyperscalers force default-on signed connectors + audit logs (aka “regulated C2”)?

Your IDE agent can read files + run terminal commands + browse the web 🗂️🧨🌐

Prompt injection turns that into “do my crime for me.”

Forecast: 24% chance of a publicly confirmed Fortune 500 chain (exec or secret exfil) by 2026-12-31. 😈

Your backup system isn’t your parachute. It’s a beachhead. 🏖️

Mandiant/GTIG report UNC6201 exploiting Dell RP4VM (CVE-2026-22769, CVSS 10.0). Hardcoded credential → OS-level control + root persistence.

Cambodia says it sealed off ~190 scam sites. 🧨

Nothing says ‘secure’ like asking users to paste commands into Run.
