| 8 | ## Goal |
| 9 | Simulate attacker behaviors and verify detections + routing end-to-end. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | ## When to use |
| 12 | - After deploying/tuning detection rules |
| 13 | - After telemetry changes (Sysmon, agent configs) |
| 14 | |
| 15 | ## Prereqs |
| 16 | - Atomic Red Team available on a test endpoint |
| 17 | - Velociraptor artifacts to execute tests remotely |

| 22 | ## Procedure (high level) |
| 23 | 1) Pick a safe atomic test |
| 24 | 2) Execute it via CoPilot/Velociraptor |
| 25 | 3) Confirm the expected alert fires |
| 26 | 4) Tune rules/telemetry if needed |
| 27 | |
| 28 | ## Validation |
| 29 | - Alert fires and is visible in the expected UI surface(s) |
