Meet Sliver Armory BOFs. Tiny in-memory payloads you run from a beacon to test technique-based detections, not filenames. Cleaner telemetry, repeatable tests, real thrunting value. Read here: dispatch.thorcollective.com/p/sliver-bof...
If tstats gives you speed and eventstats gives you context...timechart gives you shape.
This week’s @thorcollective.bsky.social SPL Dispatch breaks down how to use timechart to uncover rhythm, automation, and the a cron job masquerading as “normal.”

Threat hunting falls apart when your “docs” live in Slack threads.
Part 2 of the @thorcollective.bsky.social Dispatch Agentic Threat Hunting series covers the first step to scaling: put your hunts in a GitHub repo and give your AI bestie memory.

Certis Foster didn't hunt for it.
It revealed itself.
The key? Plotting behavior in 3D space:
🕒 Time
🗺️ Terrain
🎯 Behavior
Outliers can’t hide in 3D.

Summertime sadness hit the Dispatch hard: sunscreen > screen time. 🌞
But the hunts never stopped, and this month we’re back with fresh chaos, AI wisdom, and a noob’s-eye view of DEF CON.
👉 Catch the @thorcollective.bsky.social August Dispatch: dispatch.thorcollective.com/p/dispatch-d...
The Quiet War isn’t loud breaches or ransomware. It’s subtle. AI-driven adversaries are blending in and evading detection.
Hunters must shift: hunt intent, not just indicators.

Threat hunting is broken.
We can’t out-query adversaries who automate everything.
Enter the agentic threat hunter. An AI that thinks, hypothesizes, investigates, and scales.
In the latest @thorcollective.bsky.social Dispatch, we explore this shift:
