Shared threat frameworks have enabled consistent communication and coordination across vulnerability researchers, PSIRTs, vendors, and defenders. However, as attackers increasingly operate at the application layer (abusing software supply chains, runtime behavior, and trusted cloud workflows) defenders face challenges applying existing models consistently. This session presents lessons from the Application Attack Matrix, a community-driven research effort involving contributors from Mandiant (Google Cloud), Microsoft, AWS, Meta, Oligo Security, and others, and uses the ByBit / Safe{Wallet} incident to illustrate why application-layer technique modeling is increasingly important.
