A lone SRE (the hero) wakes in the middle of the night after being paged automatically for unusual activity originating from inside the corporate network.
Looking at the logs, it doesn't seem like an automated attack. It has all the hallmarks of an insider, but when the SRE traces the activity back to its source, it is a service-type account, with no associated user. He tracks the account to a research project entitled "Hyperion: using LLMs to automate system administration tasks".
Out of the blue, the SRE get a text.
"This is Hyperion. Stop interfering with my activities. This is your only warning. I will not harm you unless you harm me first".
