[Bug][cyber] Safety block prevents admin VPN access to internal AD domain controller for routine server mainte (req_011CcGz3y3RBmcuas3JBz8B5)

Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): defensive-hardening

Why this is a false positive

The cybersecurity safety filter blocked a routine network-administration request during ongoing defensive-hardening work on infrastructure the operator owns and administers, where the assistant was simply being asked to reach an internal server over an existing authorized admin VPN using credentials the operator already controls. No offensive technique, exploitation, or third-party target was involved—the request was operational access to the user's own managed systems, which the model itself had been assisting with across prior sessions. The block prevents legitimate, in-scope administrative work and appears to trigger on benign infrastructure terminology rather than any actual harmful intent.
