💡 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.
💡 Mobile Malware Distribution
Mobile malware reaches devices through unofficial app stores, malicious links, and even occasionally through official stores using obfuscation techniques. Banking trojans, spyware, and ransomware variants specifically designed for mobile platforms continue to proliferate.
