Case Studies & Research Links

Case Study 1: SolarWinds Supply Chain Breach (2020)

Key Lesson: A single compromised update pipeline propagated to 18,000 clients globally. Secure Lattice Mitigation: Proof anchoring of every build artifact would have exposed hash drift before deployment, preventing global compromise.

Case Study 2: MGM Resorts Breach (2023)

Summary: Social engineering of IT support led to network-wide compromise of authentication infrastructure. Lattice Response Simulation: Endpoint agents detect high-privilege account activity outside of user context, auto-isolate session, and anchor incident record for audit. Reference: [CISA Cyber Incident Review, 2024]

Case Study 3: Change Healthcare Ransomware Attack (2024)

Summary: Ransomware targeted health transaction clearinghouses, freezing nationwide operations. Mitigation: Secure Lattice AI would have detected anomalous encryption process patterns at the kernel level, isolated the agent, and published a PoV proof within seconds. Reference: [HHS OCR Ransomware Analysis, 2024]
