Attackers exploit credential reuse, phishing infrastructure, and automation to scale these intrusions. Reported retail ATO cases in the UK rose 96% year over year (Action Fraud, 2023). The following five breaches illustrate how large brands across loyalty, e-commerce, and digital wallets were compromised, and how real-time, in-session defenses could have altered the trajectory.

Defending Against WAF, API, and DDoS Attacks In this video from SourceForge, Carlo Alpuerto of A10 Networks explains the "outside-in" protection philosophy behind ThreatX.
