Helpdesk identities are under attack. As threat actors like Scattered Spider evolve, they’re shifting away from traditional malware and zeroing in on the human layer - targeting the helpdesk and exploiting identity and privilege gaps to bypass even the most robust defenses.

Watch our panel of security researchers as they broke down how attackers are weaponizing social engineering, remote support channels, and privilege escalation to bypass defenses - and what organizations can do to stop them.

Our researchers covered:

  • How groups like Scattered Spider are exploiting helpdesk and remote support personnel
  • Real-world attack chains and identity-based intrusion techniques
  • The top identity and privilege risks uncovered through threat research
  • Strategies for hardening helpdesk
