SaaS has become the default choice for productivity and collaboration apps. MSPs face challenges in delivering managed services for these environments in general, and security services for Microsoft 365 specifically, as a critical component of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy.

3AM (also known as ThreeAM) is a ransomware group that first emerged in late 2023. Like other ransomware threats, 3AM exfiltrates victims' data (threatening to release it publicly unless a ransom is paid) and encrypts the copies left on targeted organisations' computer systems.
