Credential Stuffing 101

Like all trends, cyber threats come in waves and credential stuffing attacks are no exception. Their sudden surge in popularity sends cybersecurity teams scrambling to respond to these overwhelming attacks, leaving little room to educate themselves and users on preventive measures, let alone address the underlying concerns that allow them to flourish. Among them:
- Gigantic troves of stolen user account credentials are widely available for criminals to purchase
- Consumers of digital services insist on using weak, easy-to-remember passwords for multiple accounts
- Automated credential stuffing software makes perpetrating these malicious acts fairly easy
Regardless of your industry, credential stuffing is an equal opportunity offender and the implications are very real.
