This guide will take you through the steps to make a custom scheduled sending of a specific report
Focused Report
Purpose: Identify and update/revoke outdated AnyDesk versions to prevent compromise of your customers.
Check the Report: Validate outdated AnyDesk devices via asset inventory and SIEM logs.
Approve or Update: Verify outdated installations, notify customers, enforce updates, and refine detection.
Why Important: Outdated AnyDesk poses risks; update to prevent remote access threats.
AnyDesk is a widely used remote access tool, but outdated versions may contain security vulnerabilities that expose networks to unauthorized access and exploitation. Recent intelligence has identified a security risk in older versions of AnyDesk, requiring immediate updates to mitigate potential threats.
This use case focuses on detecting and addressing outdated AnyDesk installations within a customer's network. By leveraging network modeling, SIEM correlation, and asset validation, security teams can identify vulnerable endpoints, notify affected customers, and enforce timely updates. Proactive mitigation ensures a stronger security posture, reducing the risk of remote access compromise and unauthorized system control.

*** If the report is empty, make sure that the Sysmon Conkit is at version 31 or above.
Immediate Update: Customers must update AnyDesk to the latest version from the official website.
Software Inventory Management: Regularly audit and track remote access tools to ensure compliance.
Access Control: Restrict outdated AnyDesk versions from running on critical systems.
Endpoint Protection: Enforce security policies to prevent unauthorized remote access software.
Customer Communication: Provide clear instructions and follow-ups for software updates.
Continuous Monitoring: Regularly review logs and threat intelligence for emerging vulnerabilities.
Unauthorized Access: Attackers may exploit outdated versions to gain remote control.
Data Breach: Compromised AnyDesk could lead to unauthorized data access and exfiltration.
Malware Deployment: Threat actors could use vulnerabilities to install ransomware or spyware.
Lateral Movement: Attackers may use compromised devices to spread across the network.
Compliance Violations: Running outdated software may breach security policies and regulations.
Operational Disruption: Remote access compromise could lead to system downtime or lockouts.
Credential Theft: Exploited versions may allow attackers to steal login credentials.
Reputation Damage: A security breach due to outdated software can harm customer trust.
