💡 SQL Injection Campaigns
SQL injection remains one of the most common web attack vectors. Attackers inject malicious SQL code through input fields to extract database contents, modify data, or gain administrative access. Automated scanners test for SQLi vulnerabilities at massive scale.
💡 Cloud Infrastructure Abuse
Cloud platforms provide attackers with elastic, disposable infrastructure. Free tier accounts, stolen credit cards, and compromised cloud credentials enable rapid deployment of attack infrastructure that can scale to millions of requests and disappear within hours.
