Dailymotion Resets Passwords After Credential Stuffing Attack

Dailymotion says some accounts were the target of a credential stuffing attack. The video platform’s security team discovered the unauthorized access attempts and stopped them. The company has also informed the French Data Protection Authority (CNIL) of the attack. Users can stay safe against credential stuffing attacks by choosing unique passwords for accessing online services. Users should also consider implementing brute force protection to limit the number of consecutive failed login attempts, according to Dailymotion’s email notification to potentially impacted users, the company says.
