Browse the MITRE ATLAS v2026.08 tactic & technique taxonomy for AI systems, alongside SSG's own derived coverage tier for each technique — see the methodology note below for exactly what that tier does and does not claim.

AML.T0117 Partial

Autonomous Attack-Path Adaptation

Adversaries may use an AI agent to autonomously construct and repeatedly revise an attack path toward an adversary-defined objective. Given a high-level objective, the system may derive intermediate objectives, identify prerequisites, and compare candidate paths, and incorporate…

Methodology. Catalog: MITRE ATLAS v2026.08 (atlas.mitre.org). Coverage tiers are derived from MITRE's own published mitigation↔technique mappings — never hand-assigned per technique. SSG's claim is limited to which ATLAS mitigations it implements as controls; it does not claim to cover ATLAS techniques directly. A tier records which SSG control exists for a MITRE-published mitigation — it is not a statement about outcome, and it is not a certification, an audit result, or an endorsement by MITRE.
