Listen on

Episode notes

Xavier Salinas, CTO, and David Rushmer, Director of Threat Research, join Jon Murchison, founder and CEO, to discuss new tactics and techniques they have recently seen from malicious actors. They provide an overview on how these breaches typically occur, how administrative privileges can be used to maliciously access documentation management platforms, as well as some lessons learned on MSP documentation tools. Hackers are continuing to be more creative and clever, utilizing more built-in tools other than RMM software. Because of this, it’s critical to look at infrastructure from a network design standpoint, especially in highly virtualized environments. Xavier and David agree that when you can truly understand what an adversary can see, you can better defend it.
