The attacker leveraged legitimate RMM capabilities to transfer files and execute commands across managed systems. Stolen AI assistant tokens provided extensive access to repositories, databases, and cloud accounts. The intrusion demonstrated how a single authentication bypass in trusted management infrastructure can enable widespread c...
