ATTACK NARRATIVE
A FIN7-attributed attacker is attempting lateral movement toward the payment processing network segment. Entry was through a phishing email targeting a finance department employee. The Network Agent detected anomalous east-west traffic patterns and the CIE has segmented the payment network with micro-segmentation rules. All paths to POS terminals have been sealed.
