Extended Cyber Kill Chain for AI-Era Threats

This framework extends the Lockheed Martin seven-stage Cyber Kill Chain by adding a pre-attack Stage 0 for model supply chain compromise, AI-specific sub-techniques to each original stage, and splitting Stage 7 into three peer sub-stages: classical data exfiltration, model extraction, and agentic pivot. It provides detection signals and mitigations for SOC analysts fighting LLM and AI agent attacks.
