Title: CTI Bingo: RMM Abuse, Supply Chains, and EDR Killers

Description: Ransomware groups continue to evolve, blending supply chain compromises and remote monitoring tool abuse, and EDR-killer techniques into highly effective campaigns. This talk walks through real-world incident response cases that show how attackers are weaponizing trust, turning managed service providers, remote access platforms, and even Windows’ built-in defenses into tools of compromise. Gaining insights into the tactics behind one-to-many compromises, the creative ways threat actors disable EDR and defenses, and how ransomware-as-a-service is intersecting with single-operator tradecraft.
