Description
Sophisticated cyber-attacks known as Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) are typified by sustained and focused activities, usually carried out by well-funded adversaries like nation-states or organised crime groups. These threats use cutting-edge tactics to enter target networks and stay there in an effort to steal important data or interfere with daily operations. APTs are particularly difficult to identify and counter because of their stealth, tenacity, and adaptability. In order to protect sensitive data and vital infrastructure from APTs, organisations must coordinate their efforts, have strong threat intelligence, and use dynamic security measures.
