See `DLP-SURFACE-EMBEDDING-STORE` and `DLP-SURFACE-TRAINING-DATA`. | Cloud DLP scanning of object stores is mature for files but not for vector indexes — index payloads are not classifiable as files.

63
  Incident response (IR) is the operational closure of every other skill in this catalog. A vulnerability becomes a CVE through `coordinated-vuln-disclosure`; a CVE becomes a lesson through `zeroday-gap-learn`; a lesson becomes a control through `framework-gap-analysis`; an attack on that control becomes an incident — and the incident handler runs the playbook this skill defines. If the playbook is wrong, every preceding investment leaks at the last yard.

- The 14-class checklist above *is* the TTP map. Each class is a coverage requirement against the canonical sources of truth: `data/atlas-ttps.json` (MITRE ATLAS v5.6.0) and the ATT&CK techniques referenced in `data/cve-catalog.json`. A current threat model must address — explicitly or by reasoned exclusion — every TTP below.
