Remote Monitoring and Management Tools | Huntress

Huntress investigated two separate incidents where threat actors exploited remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools used by managed service providers (MSPs) to target multiple businesses. The incidents showed similar attack patterns but with tactical variations, indicating evolving methods in how adversaries abuse RMM infrastructure for lateral movement and network access.

Why it matters: MSPs and their downstream customers face direct risk from RMM compromise, as these tools provide legitimate administrative access across multiple client networks, making them high-value targets for attackers seeking broad network access.
