We are introducing a new platform 🎉

What do infostealers steal?

Infostealers are designed to extract any data that provides access to systems, services, or user identities. What they steal depends on the variant, but most target:

  • Saved usernames and passwords — from browsers, apps, and password managers

  • Session cookies and tokens — used to bypass MFA and access services without logging in

  • Autofill data — including names, addresses, phone numbers, credit cards

  • Financial data — bank account details, payment info, and credit card numbers

  • Crypto wallets and keys — hot wallets, private keys, and browser wallet extensions

  • Password manager exports — exported vaults or clipboard-copied credentials

  • Local files — especially in the Downloads folder (documents, IDs, attachments)

  • Browser data — browsing history, saved logins, and stored cookies

  • System and device metadata — IP address, hostname, OS version, browser type

  • Screenshots or clipboard content — sometimes taken during execution

This data is bundled into a "log" and uploaded. One log often contains full access to cloud accounts, email inboxes, business tools, or admin panels.
