Clarified SockTz attempts and connection success status, evaluation entities for AI usage and failure reasons, baseless infrastructure-sharing hypotheses, and observations from both attacker and victim environments. Updated Japanese phrasing and adjusted "Visibility for Victims and Administrators" to clearly describe events appearing in screens, logs, and devices along with their observation conditions. Regional assumptions were removed from "Impact on SOCs," which was refactored into general lessons for global SOCs and enterprises regarding tracking retries, distinguishing attempts from successes, and leveraging attacker infrastructure analysis.
