Ads Dawson and Adrian Wood's benchmark distills 11 verified real incidents into 14 dockerized scenarios and scores autonomous offensive agents across six OPSEC dimensions with a three-model judge panel. The compound metric requires both completion and maintained stealth, and systematic tradecraft failures show up across model families: credential exposure, gratuitous demonstrations of access. The defensive inversion is the useful read: current agents are loud, and that noise is presently the cheapest detection signal defenders have. Don't count on it lasting.
