Security researchers are warning about a phishing campaign that abuses Power BI to trick victims into installing a rogue ScreenConnect remote-access client. The attack leverages Microsoft's legitimate domain, making malicious links appear trustworthy and complicating detection. Researchers including Huntress have published guidance on how the scheme works and how organisations can block it.
