If you are fed up with hearing about the threat posed by infostealer malware then I’ve got some bad news for you. Just as one story warning that 85 million stolen passwords are being used in ongoing attacks against enterprise networks, like London buses along comes another. This time, however, the numbers are bigger. Much bigger, in fact. New threat intelligence has confirmed that, across 2024, a total of 3.2 billion credentials were stolen. And that’s not the double-whammy of bad news I’ve got for you: 75% of those credentials, or 2.1 billion if you prefer, were compromised by infostealer malware attacks.
