Sysdig documented an autonomous ransomware attack where the operator was removed from the execution chain—no human hand on deployment, encryption, or ransom negotiation.

Security teams face adversaries that operate continuously, without fatigue mistakes, and can parallelize across thousands of targets. Incident response playbooks built around human behavior patterns and response windows no longer fit the threat model.
