Cybercriminals seek passwords and credentials to enter networks and applications in order to monitor and steal data. Capture the flag exercises highlight how human attackers analyze email, files, documents, and unstructured data for credentials, while automated malware mainly focuses on structured data in web browsers and apps. Access Credentials are a top priority for attackers to successfully enter and move laterally within networks.
