Preventing Account Takeover in
E-Commerce And Retail
Webinar by David Hétu, Flare Systems and Pharid Jaffer
Digitalization, cloud based-services, and the rise of online marketplaces and services have increased the number of entry points for malicious actors who want to exploit sensitive data from retailers. External threat protection solutions help businesses understand the extent of their digital risk. By uncovering human errors and criminal networks operating in the dark, deep and clear web, Retailers and Loyalty Programs can equip themselves with the necessary intelligence to prevent harm before it occurs.
This webinar will explore one of the most prevalent and easily exploitable threat vectors used by malicious actors: leaked credentials.
- We will start by learning how malicious actors acquire credentials using phishing attacks and database leaks and assess their value.
- This will lead into an exploration of real-world examples of malicious actors that target e-commerce and loyalty programs specifically. We will explore what malicious actors advertise for sale and report on an engagement with malicious actors to further understand how they are targeting e-commerce and loyalty programs.
