FortiBleed, 70,000 Compromised Devices,
and the Credential Economy Powering Every Breach
When a 20-person team using AI, automated tools, and a list of default credentials compromised 70,000 devices across 194 countries they exposed how mature the criminal market behind credential theft has become. Initial access brokers are now packaging pre-validated enterprise access for an average of $113,000, and the window from information stealer infection to ransomware deployment is just seven days.
Join hosts Tehman Tariq and John Dilgen as they break down:
- The mechanics behind FortiBleed and what made it so effective at scale
- How the IAB market has turned stolen credentials into a premium product
- Why identity drift and non-human identities are becoming attackers' favorite targets
Two questions your organization should be asking right now:
- Does your credential compromise runbook treat session termination as the first step — or is password rotation all that's covered?
- Can your team name the owner and rotation schedule for your top 10 most privileged non-human identities?
