Global RMM Phishing Campaign Exploits Legitimate Cloud Services Across 46 Countries
In September 2026, security researchers identified a sophisticated RMM phishing campaign spanning 46 countries, with the United States accounting for 45% of observed activity. The operation used fake documents mimicking tax forms, shipping notifications, and government communications to trick victims into installing legitimate remote monitoring and management software. Attackers leveraged rapidly rotating infrastructure on Vercel, GitHub Pages, and Netlify, with 94% of 425 identified URLs observed for only a single day. The campaign targeted education, technology, government, banking, and manufacturing sectors. This incident highlights the growing trend of threat actors abusing legitimate cloud services and software for malicious purposes, making detection increasingly challenging through traditional IOC-based approaches.
