You Cannot Defend What You Cannot Inspect
We are deploying AI we can't explain, defending AI we can't inspect, and trusting AI we can't audit. That is not a governance program. That is a liability surface.

When FIRSTCON26 Rode into Denver
Well, partner... what a week. This June, 700 cybersecurity professionals saddled up in Denver, Colorado for the 38th Annual FIRST Conference (FIRSTCON26), proving once again that when the global incident response community gets together, great things happen.

New on the @first.org blog: Vishal Thakur (Atlassian CSIRT) and #FIRSTCON26 speaker, with co-author David Wearing, on PR3TACK, cataloguing adversary tactics before they hit an incident report, not after.

go.first.org/TUmTi

#cybersecurity #infosec
PR3TACK: The Preemptive Tactics & Countermeasures Knowledgebase
The Preemptive Tactics & Countermeasures Knowledgebase (PR3TACK) is an openly accessible framework designed to catalogue *plausible but unobserved* adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). Whereas existing knowledge bases such as MITRE ATT&CK and MITRE D3FEND are constructed retrospectively from observed adversarial activity, PR3TACK seeks to bridge the anticipatory gap. It provides a structured means of conceptualising techniques that adversaries could plausibly develop and deploy, based on the convergence of known system vulnerabilities, adversarial innovation patterns, and technological affordances. In so doing, PR3TACK offers defenders a strategic advantage: the ability to harden environments preemptively, before exploitation occurs. This paper outlines the rationale, structure, and prospective impact of PR3TACK, situating it within ongoing debates about proactive defence, resilience engineering, and the epistemology of cyber threat intelligence.
