A credential stuffing attack is a type of cyberattack where cybercriminals take username/password combinations leaked on other sites to gain illegal access to user accounts.
Attackers attempt to use the stolen set of credentials against multiple websites in order to compromise and take full control of user accounts. The stolen credentials are then leaked at other sites or sold at underground forums and hackers try to brute-force those credentials into various other sites in an attempt to gain unauthorized access to the user account.
Attackers also attempt to use the breached credentials against multiple websites in order to compromise and take full control of user accounts.
In order to stay protected from credential stuffing attacks, it is best to never reuse the same passwords across multiple sites. It always recommended to use unique passwords for each account and periodically rotate passwords. It is further recommended to use strong, complex, and unique passwords that are difficult to crack. 90% of the businesses we search have stolen credentials on the Dark Web!
