We’ve been thinking of adding a Jargon-to-English translation series here on the Cryptosphere, but I see Bromium Labs have got the jump on us. Here are their ABC’s of APT (advanced persistent threat).
Here at Bromium Labs, we’re always striving to further our knowledge of the rapidly-changing attack landscape that threatens our enterprise customers. Over the past few months, our dedicated team of researchers have collectively developed a severe chemical dependency on caffeine in search of a paradigm to clearly define this landscape in a way that could benefit the security community as a whole. What they came up with is truly groundbreaking, and will go down in history as “The ABC’s of APT.”
