The cybersecurity landscape faces unprecedented threats following the exposure of 16 billion login credentials linked to major platforms like Apple, Google, and Facebook. Cybernews researchers identified 30 datasets, some containing up to 3.5 billion records, with recent and structured data that poses a significant risk.

Experts warn that real-time threats such as PylangGhost could exploit these stolen credentials to compromise crypto platforms globally. The breach spans social media, corporate networks, VPNs, and developer tools, highlighting the pervasive reach of infostealer malware.

This leak is not merely a data dump—it’s a blueprint for mass exploitation. Cybercriminals now have unparalleled access to personal credentials, enabling account takeovers, identity theft, and highly targeted phishing attacks. While the datasets were briefly accessible, the potential for damage remains severe.
