Your task

EDR fires on a production app server: a process spawned by your web app ran whoami, then nmap against the internal /16, then attempted SSH to 14 internal hosts using a key it found at /home/app/.ssh/id_rsa. Two of those SSH attempts succeeded. The web app had a known unpatched deserialization bug. Auth logs show the same key now logging into a database bastion. It's 04:00 and you're the on-call incident commander. How do you run this?
