Credential Stuffing
The #1 Gaming Account Threat

Most gaming accounts aren't "hacked" in the traditional sense. They're compromised through credential stuffing — automated attacks that exploit reused passwords from data breaches.

How Credential Stuffing Works

A website gets breached

Millions of email/password pairs are leaked and sold on the dark web for as little as $5

Bots try credentials everywhere

Automated tools test each email/password on Steam, Discord, Epic, PSN, Xbox — thousands per minute

Reused passwords = instant access

Even a 0.1% success rate means thousands of compromised gaming accounts from a single breach

The Solution is Simple

Credential stuffing only works if you reuse passwords. Two things stop it completely:

  1. Unique passwords for every account (use a password manager)
  2. 2FA — even if a password matches, the attacker can't get past the second factor

And GalaxyWarden monitors for breaches so you know the moment your credentials are leaked — before attackers can use them.

Check If Your Credentials Are in Breach Databases

If your email appears in known breaches, credential stuffing bots are likely already trying it on gaming platforms.
