Technicians may push updates, install software, troubleshoot systems, and monitor performance across hundreds or thousands of endpoints with RMM tools and PSA software, which are the command centers of MSP operations. From the standpoint of an attacker, that is a fantastic opportunity: Give up your RMM service and you'll have exclusive access to all connected systems.
This “one-to-many” relationship is why ransomware gangs, APT groups and other cyb?r adversaries are investing heavily in identifying vulnerabilities in these platforms. They can deploy malicious payloads at scale, move latent ally with little resistance, and circumvent endpoint definitions with a single intrusion.
It also fits into a larger trend in today's threat landscape: attackers deliberately seek out advanced technologies that serve as command centers for numerous others. Like other backbone platforms that have been committed in recent years, like SolarWinds Orion, Cod?cov, and 3CX, RMMs tools and PSA software are a perfect fit for this strategy. One RMM environment breach can serve as a springboard for mass exploitation across hundreds or even thousands of down stretched networks in a single action.
