Akamai has released research detailing wide-ranging credential abuse attacks against online video and music streaming services, ranking Australia as the 5th most targeted country for credential stuffing attacks.
Among the findings in the State of the Internet / Security: Credential Stuffing: Attacks and Economies – Special Media Report, three of the largest credential stuffing attacks against streaming services in 2018, ranging in size from 133 million to 200 million attempts, took place shortly after reported data breaches.
The report spotlights how Akamai researchers discovered easily accessible online video tutorials that provide step-by-step instructions for executing credential stuffing attacks, including using ‘All-in-One’ applications to validate stolen or generated credentials.
