What is APT?

APT stands for Advanced Persistent Threat. It refers to a sophisticated, long-term cyberattack campaign in which an attacker, or a group of attackers, gains unauthorized access to a network and remains undetected for an extended period. The intent is typically to steal data or intellectual property rather than cause immediate damage. APT attacks are often conducted by state-sponsored actors or organized crime groups and are characterized by their advanced techniques, persistence, and focus on specific targets.
