  • Engineer — Act: If your org or your MSP uses ConnectWise Cloud Backup (formerly SkyKick), audit M365 unified audit logs and sign-in logs immediately for delegated-access activity from ConnectWise service accounts, and review/revoke any delegated admin permissions granted to ConnectWise.
  • SOC/IR — Act: Active campaign accessing M365 tenants via compromised MSP tool credentials — hunt M365 sign-in logs for authentication events tied to ConnectWise Cloud Backup service principals or delegated admin access since this campaign began, and alert on anomalous third-party delegated logins.
  • Leader — Act: If your organization uses an MSP that relies on ConnectWise Cloud Backup, confirm your exposure this week by requesting an attestation from that vendor; 173 confirmed tenant compromises via a single supply-chain credential is a board-question-level supply chain trust event.
