💡 Credential Stuffing at Scale
Credential stuffing uses stolen username-password pairs from data breaches to attempt logins across many websites. Since users frequently reuse passwords, these automated attacks achieve success rates of 0.1-2%, which translates to thousands of compromised accounts from millions of attempts.
💡 Log Correlation and SIEM Integration
Correlating logs across web servers, firewalls, DNS, and authentication systems reveals attack patterns invisible in individual log sources. Modern SIEM platforms use statistical analysis to connect related events across time and systems.
