A coding agent with elevated permissions, used legitimately for routine maintenance, suddenly issues a series of valid DROP TABLE statements against the production data warehouse. The first table goes in nine seconds. Three more are queued. This scenario tests your detection, kill-switch readiness, audit trail completeness, and customer communication under speed..

An agent's long-term memory store is poisoned by a malicious user who briefly held a partner-organization account.
