SUSY is a general framework with diverse realizations
Discovery of 125 GeV Higgs has changed perspective on SUSY: Hard breaking needed / MSSM unnatural Conclusions

Discovery of 125 GeV Higgs has changed perspective on SUSY: Hard breaking needed / MSSM unnatural
Higgs could be the first SUSY partner discovered (same quantum numbers as sneutrino):
Squarks decay into quarks and leptons, or into 3-body If gravitino is light, small invisible Higgs BR expected
Dedicated study allows to distinguish from other models
