Cybercriminals target Brazilian routers with default credentials

Households and small businesses that use consumer-grade internet routers may fall victim to attacks that are currently targeting mainly Brazilian users, but may be easily localized to any other country.
These attacks have been around since 2012, but the risks they carry are rising sharply as the number of devices connected via routers to the internet skyrockets (according to Cisco there will be 3.4 devices per capita connected to IP networks by 2020). Therefore, we are closely monitoring these attacks in order to keep pace with recent developments in the attackers’ techniques.
