The cybercrime supply chain has five stages, each with a price
Vigilant's CEO outlines the five-stage cybercrime supply chain, from $5-$50 credential logs through RaaS affiliates to laundering, plus cookie-based MFA bypass.
In a Help Net Security video, Vigilant CEO Chris Nyhuis argues the lone ransomware attacker image is 15 years out of date and describes five businesses inside the cybercrime supply chain. The stages are infostealer harvesters, brokers who verify and resell access, ransomware-as-a-service operators, affiliates who run intrusions, and launderers. He notes stolen credential logs sell for $5 to $50, broker listings stay under $1,000, and stolen session cookies let attackers bypass multi-factor authentication.
