Running a Full Multi-Stage Intrusion Simulation. Every Detection Fired.
Summary

SHENRON, a polymorphic adversarial simulation framework, generates inert telemetry mimicking attack patterns for detection testing without executing payloads. A full 9-stage kill chain scenario covering ATT&CK techniques (e.g., C2 beacon, lateral recon, persistence) with realistic timing offsets and stealth scoring (ranging 65-80) was run, and every detection expectation in the suite fired. The framework enforces a safety contract (simulation_only, no executable, no payload) to ensure no actual compromise occurs.
