Using these credentials in combination with simple botnets, they are able to initiate attacks that test the validity of username and password combinations on a website. If a credential is still active, the attacker is able to gain access to perform a variety of malicious activities including the theft of personal and payment information. Fortinet's Credential Stuffing Defense identifies login attempts using credentials that have been compromised using an always up-to-date feed of stolen credentials. Administrators can configure their supported devices to take various actions if a suspicious login is used including logging, alerts, and blocking.
