Why Attackers Scale Infrastructure While Teams Chase Alerts TL;TR  Defenders are trapped in a reactive loop of triaging millions of alerts (often 50-90% false positives), while attackers spend weeks or months in a “quiet build” phase. During this time, they register domains, warm up IP addresses, and establish Command-and-Control (C2) infrastructure that is statistically indistinguishable from legitimate
