- what the term “Advanced Persistent Threat” actually describes and what the objectives of groups behind these attacks are
- what some of the most dangerous APT groups are and their activities have also been analyzed by ESET researchers recently
- what kinds of mitigation measures organizations can implement so they protect their data from advanced threat actors carrying out highly targeted attacks
- why it’s important to have a plan in place in case an intrusion does take place
