    Laying the Foundations for Credential Harvesting

    In the case Sophos observed, Qilin did not only conduct an extortion
    attack but also deployed a credentials-harvesting scheme.

    The group targeted Google Chrome browsers, which currently holds over
    65% of the browser market.

    Anybody stupid enough to save credentials, addresses and payment
    information in a browser deserves to be broke, homeless, and walking the streets. No sympathy whatsoever.
