Episode 94 — Building the Attack Narrative
This episode teaches you to build an attack narrative that connects technical actions to business meaning, turning scattered steps into a coherent story that supports prioritization and remediation. You’ll learn a simple structure, initial access, expansion, impact, and recommendations, and how to keep chronology clear so stakeholders understand what happened first and why each step mattered. We’ll cover linking cause to effect, showing how a weakness enabled access and how access enabled impact, while also documenting constraints and safer choices to demonstrate professional discipline. You’ll practice turning a sequence of actions into outcome-focused language, integrating evidence points without drowning the reader in tooling detail, and tailoring the narrative for leadership versus technical implementers. By the end, you’ll be able to produce narratives that defend your conclusions, help teams fix root causes, and prevent common report failures like listing tools instead of explaining outcomes and risk.
