Peer2Profit Turns Employee Devices Into AstroProxy Nodes That Can Expose Internal Networks

Peer2Profit, a residential proxy service, converts employee devices into AstroProxy nodes that can inadvertently expose internal corporate networks. The arrangement creates a pathway for threat actors to gain access to sensitive network infrastructure through compromised or unwitting employee systems.

Why it matters: Security teams and network administrators managing employee devices must assess whether Peer2Profit or similar proxy services are running on corporate assets, as this exposes internal networks to external access and potential compromise.
