Bot-Driven Credential Stuffing Hits New Heights
Found on Info Security on Friday, 23 February 2018
More than 40% of global log-in attempts are malicious thanks to bot-driven credential stuffing attacks, according to the latest report from Akamai.
The stats chime with similar data from fraud prevention specialist ThreatMetrix, which claimed in its latest Cybercrime report for Q4 2017 that there were 34 million bot attacks during the peak festive shopping period, rising to 800 million for the quarter.
You could say more than 90% and still be correct.
