This really captures what keeps me up lately—watching defenders still optimzaing for quarterly patch cycles while nation-states embed themselves for multi-year positioning. The China/Russia infrastructure pre-positioning feels like we're watching two different games being played on the same board. I saw similar patterns when working on incident response for a small manufacturing client last year; turns out their "trusted" third-party software vendor had been their biggest blindspot all along. The most chilling takeaway for me is how the patient, silent tactics become invisible until it's already too late.
