Mike Swanson 0c000109dc chore(memory): consolidate scattered feedback/project/reference files
Compressed memory store 104 -> 71 files via four passes:

- Syncro: 19 scattered feedback_syncro_* files merged into 3 rule files
  (api/billing/workflow) + an on-demand feedback_syncro_history.md for
  incident detail, quotes, and tech/product ID tables.
- Four near-duplicate merges: Howard paste-safety, Pluto build server,
  Howard backend deferral, IX server access (ssh+tailscale).
- Per-cluster rule/state/history split applied to GuruConnect (2->1),
  Dataforth (3->2), Cascades (7->3), GuruRMM (13->3).
- New reference_resource_map.md: single auto-loaded cheatsheet for
  "do I have access to X and how do I connect from this machine?"
- MEMORY.md rewritten to match the new layout.

Health: broken backlinks 8->7, overlap clusters 12->5, orphans 17->0.

Incident — 2026-03-27 (RESOLVED 2026-04-04)

Joel Lohr's workstation (DF-JOEL2, 192.168.0.143) compromised via a phishing email to a personal Yahoo account. Attacker (alias "Angel Raya") deployed ScreenConnect C2 backdoors. M365 account also compromised — sign-ins from Turkey/UK/Germany.

Attacker

  • C2 IPs: 80.76.49.18, 45.88.91.99 (AS399486, Virtuo, Montreal QC) — SUSPENDED by host.
  • Cloud relay: instance-wlb9ga-relay.screenconnect.com
  • ConnectWise case: 03464184
  • IC3 complaint: 1c32ade367084be9acd548f23705736f

Remediation

  • C2 IPs blocked at UDM firewall via iptables. Outstanding: add permanent rules in the UniFi UI (still on iptables-only as of incident close).
  • 3 rogue ScreenConnect clients uninstalled.
  • jlohr AD password reset; M365 sessions revoked.
  • 32 machines scanned clean, 28 unreachable (offline at scan time — check when available).
  • No lateral movement detected.

MFA rollout (born from this incident)

  • 3 CA policies deployed report-only first, then enforced 2026-04-04:
    • Require MFA (skip from office IP 67.206.163.122)
    • Block foreign sign-ins (US only; MFA-Travel-Bypass group for exceptions)
    • Block legacy auth
  • Notice sent to all users with the 2026-04-04 deadline.
  • 19/38 users were MFA-ready at policy go-live; 19 had pending registration.

Joel Lohr

  • Retired 2026-03-31.
  • Auto-reply directs contacts to Dan Center (dcenter@dataforth.com).
  • Account to be disabled after retirement (verify status).

Open items

  • Permanent UDM block rules for C2 IPs (currently only iptables, not in UniFi UI).
  • 28 machines that were offline at the post-incident scan — re-scan when reachable.
