2025’s costliest US breaches: identity, outage math, outcomes

Identity-led intrusions at distributors, govtech, healthcare, and an appliance vendor drove nine-figure losses. Outage duration and revocation speed determined the spread between disruption and recovery.

2025’s priciest breaches weren’t “elite malware.” They were tokens + SaaS + downtime 🪙⏱️🔥
If your revoke MTTR is measured in days, the attackers already won.

Part 2: OAuth consent scams went from “one guy” to a token factory 🎅🏭🔑
Salesloft/Drift showed how stolen OAuth tokens → Salesforce tenant exfil at scale. Google Cloud+1
Deep dive + defenses (verified publisher, least scope, fast revoke MTTR).

Zero-days get the headlines. Stolen tokens + OAuth consent abuse get the invoices. 🧾🔑😈
2025 pain = AiTM/device-code phishing + token replay + KEV-speed edge fires.

2026’s nastiest SaaS breaches will ride valid tokens + “trusted” apps. We already got the trailer with the Salesloft/Drift OAuth blast radius. And the browser? Yeah, it’s part of the perimeter now. 😬🔑💬
