Malicious cyber activity targeting information technology managed service providers / Canadian Centre for Cyber Security. : D96-13/2018E-PDF

"The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security (Cyber Centre) is aware of the ongoing malicious cyber activity targeting information technology (IT) managed service providers (MSPs) and has been providing advice and guidance to Canada-based MSPs and Canadian businesses who use MSP services. Since at least May 2016, the threat actors responsible have used various tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) to compromise a number of major global Managed Service Providers (MSP), and have successfully obtained sensitive client information. This activity has affected MSPs and their clients around the globe. The Cyber Center notes that this particular threat actor is not alone in using trust relationships to compromise victims and the recommended mitigations to reduce risk can be applied more broadly."--page 1.
