Hot Take:

Well, isn't this a digital-age heist with a side of irony? Mandiant, the cybersecurity knight in shining armor, got their social chainmail pierced by a DaaS gang. It's like finding out your waterproof watch isn't quite as resistant when you're already in the deep end. Oops. Time for some cybersecurity swimming lessons, I guess?
