Over 15 billion credentials in circulation on hacker forums

"Protecting against ATO attacks is an easy task for normal users, who can pick strong, unique passwords and enable two–factor authentication (2FA) on services that support it. This does not eliminate the risk completely but makes it infeasible to attackers as the reward is not worth the resources.

Companies, on the other hand, have a more difficult task as there are multiple aspects to consider. 2FA may not be sufficient when the threat is a motivated actor, so multi-factor authentication (MFA) should be implemented."
