The latest cyber threat uses cookies to bypass what is considered the best way to keep yourself secure online.
“Cookie stealing” is among the latest trends in cybercrimes that hackers are using to bypass credentials and access private databases, according to Sophos.
These hackers are able to exploit several different online tools and services, including browsers, web-based applications, web services, malware-infected emails, and ZIP files. On a broader scale, cybercriminals can purchase stolen cookies data, such as credentials from underground marketplaces, the publication said. The login details for an Electronic Arts game developer ended up on a marketplace called Genesis, which was reportedly purchased by the extortion group Lapsus$. The group was able to replicate EA employee login credentials and ultimately gain access to the company’s networks, stealing 780 gigabytes of data.
