Credential Stuffing is the autonomous injection of stolen username and password credentials in a web authentication function in the hopes of gaining unauthorized access to user accounts. Once an account login succeeds, the attacks quickly takes over the account. At this point the hacker may perform fraudulent financial transactions, in the case of an email account they will scrape the accounts sent and deleted items folders for every last email address available to them. They will likely target these individuals with new phishing attacks pretending to be the trusted party whose account has been hacked into.
