The 773 Million Record "Collection #1" Data Breach

In response to The 773 Million Record "Collection #1" Data Breach, an expert with OneSpan offers perspective and advice:

Will LaSala, Director of Security Solutions, Security Evangelist, OneSpan says: This is a colossal breach. Those impacted should act fast to change any reused passwords, as the exposed credentials can be used by criminals in credential stuffing attacks to cause maximum damage across multiple other accounts. And with criminals trading assets in underground forums, data from this breach could easily be cross referenced with information lying elsewhere to bypass authentication. For the more high-risk accounts like banking accounts, this poses a very real fraud threat.

Although we spent most of our time on the defensive side, part of our research activities involves thinking like an attacker to better defend the networks of our customers. This is useful not only to understand and defeat current Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) used by real-world malicious actors, but also to anticipate future threats.
