Google Cloud (ex. Mandiant) recently published a rather comprehensive breakdown of defenses against the threat cluster commonly known as Scattered Spider (UNC3944).

I can't help but feel that this report is somewhat of a deviation from many of previous Mandiant articles as it's almost entirely a list of bullets about how to defend against UNC3944.
Sure that's exactly what the article is named, but still feels... off. As if an LLM has had a chance to review/read source data and then produce a categorized list of defensive actions to take. Hopefully I'm just angry for no reason about the potential LLM-abuse.
There's usually so much more data and details in their "normal" incident styled reporting. But this one... has none of that but instead a whole bunch of recommendations that are ... well, very comprehensive and not prioritized.
I'm torn.
