An Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) refers to a prolonged and targeted cyberattack in which an intruder gains access to a network and remains undetected for an extended period. The primary role of an APT is to steal sensitive information, such as intellectual property or personal data, often for espionage or financial gain. APTs typically employ sophisticated techniques and tools to exploit vulnerabilities and maintain persistence within the targeted system. Their operations are often highly organized and can involve multiple phases, including reconnaissance, exploitation, and data exfiltration.
