credential stuffing
Stolen login reuse
Credential stuffing is a cyberattack where stolen username-password pairs from one data breach are automatically tried against other websites and services.
The attack exploits password reuse—if you use the same login for your bank and a compromised shopping site, attackers can access both.
The company detected credential stuffing attempts against thousands of accounts overnight.
