[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1049701, member: 99014"] They take your passwords from your browser (most of them) and some more sophisticated stealers will also exfiltrate and decrypt what’s stored in third-party password managers. StealC for example harvests passwords from about 50 programmes in total and that includes large variety of browsers, password managers, email clients, gaming clients, etc. They don’t need your files, they care about the cookies, autofill, password and payment information, and you don’t keep that in files. Only the most professional attackers will put great effort to go deep within your files. Who knows, you may have some payment information in PDF and word documents. [/QUOTE]
