You're just sort of loosely interweaving unrelated comments?

You're back on prevention instead of detection, but also no: an attacker with valid creds isn't going to run other checks first before using them.

And yes: by volume, most attacks on the internet are just spam reusing published tools and IP lists. And that traffic is zero percent risky unless your auth is already busted.
