Credential stuffing is a type of cyber attack that has become increasingly common in recent years. In this attack, hackers use a list of stolen usernames and passwords to gain unauthorized access to multiple accounts. The attacker uses automated software to input the stolen login credentials into various websites and apps, in the hopes that at least some of them will match valid accounts. In this blog post, we will explain what credential stuffing is, why it’s a serious threat, and most importantly, how you can protect yourself from it.

Dictionary attacks are a common type of cyber attack that use pre-compiled lists of words to try and guess a password. These attacks can be highly effective if the targeted individual has chosen a weak or easily guessable password. In order to protect yourself from a dictionary attack, it is important to use a strong and unique password that is not easily guessable. Avoid using common words or phrases, and include a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. Additionally, enabling two-factor authentication on your accounts can provide an additional layer of protection against dictionary attacks.
