Summary: Multi-stage attack chain with code injection, credential theft, and lateral movement

Comprehensive attack chain evidence

Analyst narrative

Integration of findings F001–F023 reveals a coordinated attack sequence: (1) Code injection via PowerShell and staging executables (F001–F004, F017), (2) Credential dumping and theft tools deployed (F007, F020), (3) Lateral movement via PsExec, RDP probing, and SMB (F005, F009, F014–F016), (4) Persistence via registry and boot mechanisms (F008, F021), (5) Living-off-the-land binary execution for evasion (F019), and (6) Anti-forensic log clearing (F023). Timeline spans from 2018-05-23 (earliest credential reuse) through 2018-09-06 (latest network activity), indicating sustained compromis with multiple access vectors.
