This is what to expect when a managed service provider gets popped
A Russian-language miscreant claims to have hacked their way into a managed service provider, and has asked for help monetizing what's said to be access to the networks and computers of that MSP's 50-plus US customers.
It's claimed that more than 100 ESXi hypervisor deployments, and at least a thousand servers, can be hijacked via the compromised MSP. If correct, this illustrates how service providers can be the weak links in businesses' security chains. It's been pointed out that the poster's forum reputation score was zero at the time, so take it perhaps with a pinch of salt. Also the fact that they need help extorting an MSP's clients suggests someone new to this game.a screenshot of another forum post, also in Russian, of someone peddling what was said to be initial access into one or more UK companies.
