In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, understanding advanced threats is crucial. These threats are sophisticated and designed to bypass traditional security measures. Here's an overview of what you need to know.
Types of Advanced Threats
- Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs): These are prolonged and targeted cyberattacks aimed at gaining unauthorized access to a network.
- Zero-Day Exploits: These occur when attackers exploit a previously unknown vulnerability in software.
