Phishing Campaign Exploits Remote Desktop Software
A phishing campaign is attempting to trick users into downloading remote monitoring and management (RMM) software like AnyDesk, Atera, and Splashtop, according to researchers at Malwarebytes. While these tools are legitimate, they can be exploited by threat actors to carry out many of the same functions as malware. These tools may also be less likely to be flagged as malicious by antivirus software.
