Attackers abusing remote monitoring tools to blend in
Original: How RMM abuse gives attackers a way in that looks like business as usual
Security reporting highlights how attackers are exploiting legitimate remote monitoring and management (RMM) software to gain access to corporate networks. Because these tools are standard IT kit, malicious activity using them looks like routine business operations, making intrusions harder to detect. The coverage explains the techniques involved and the growing challenge this poses for defenders trying to distinguish administrator behaviour from attacker activity.
Why now: Ongoing concern in cybersecurity circles about threat actors weaponising legitimate IT tools to evade detection.
