Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs)

The video tutorial explains Advanced Persistent Threats (APT), highlighting their multiphase, long-term, and stealthy nature. APTs are sophisticated operations targeting organizations or nations for business or political reasons, often involving network-based espionage. The purpose is to deploy customized malware on target systems, remaining undetected through various phases. Due to the complexity and resources required, APTs are typically carried out by governments rather than individual attackers.
