"Okta Warns Customers of Credential Stuffing Barrage"

Okta customers have recently experienced an "unprecedented" rise in credential stuffing attacks supposedly due to anonymizing services and residential proxies. The Identity and Access Management (IAM) vendor's Identity Threat Research team observed an increase in attacks on user accounts between April 19 and 26. These attacks appear to use the same infrastructure as attacks that targeted global Virtual Private Network (VPN) users between March 18 and April 16. All recent attacks use TOR to anonymize requests. Residential proxies such as NSOCKS, Luminati, and DataImpulse routed millions of requests. This article continues to discuss the recent surge in credential stuffing attacks against Okta customers.
