SIGNATURE: [VERIFIED]

MESSAGE:

Operation GLASS HOUSE status: Complete.

Database exfiltration successful. 4.7GB customer
financial records acquired and delivered to specified
storage location per Phase 3 directive.

Asset NIGHTINGALE (internal designation: S.M.)
compromised during operation. Subject demonstrated
emotional instability when confronted by target IT
Director Chen. Security risk assessed as HIGH.

Recommend permanent solution per standard protocol
Section 7.3: Loose End Mitigation.

Digital Vanguard operative proceeding to rotation protocol.
Next contact in 30 days unless emergency activation.

Phase 3 timeline unchanged. Architect confirms
transition to infrastructure targeting on schedule.

Data categorization complete:
- High-value individuals: 2,847
- Corporate executives: 1,203
- Government contractors: 427
- Foreign nationals: 3,219

All criteria met for social engineering deployment.

For entropy and inevitability.
