Info-Stealers: Hackers Are Skipping Your Perimeter and Going Straight for Tokens

Posted: August 24, 2025Category:

Hackers aren’t only getting fed at your perimeter. They’re skipping the line and heading straight for your tokens, session cookies, and cloud apps.

Here’s the reality:

  • 24% of all security incidents last year were thanks to info-stealers
  • The average financial fallout? A cool $100K+ per incident

Why identity is the new perimeter

An info-stealer doesn’t need to crack your firewall. It lifts a session token off an infected device — and suddenly the attacker is you, MFA and all. That’s why identity threat detection & response (ITDR) now sits alongside antivirus and firewalls in a modern security stack.

These findings come from our partner Huntress, whose managed ITDR watches our clients’ Microsoft 365 identities around the clock.
