Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) Malware Samples and Research Papers Collection

Image
  Advanced persistent threat (APT) assaults have been steadily evolving, and new varieties of APT are always emerging, bringing serious threats and challenges to today's network security environment. They normally require significant financial or technological resources, and they frequently conduct long-term and complicated attacks on specific targets.   The goal is to steal valuable secret data or conduct network espionage activities that may cause significant harm; hence, APT detection and prevention research is critical.   APT attackers, like traditional network attackers, must deploy malware as attack weapons in cyberspace. Unlike regular network assaults, however, APT attacks will include certain custom software to accomplish specific goals against various targets.   This malware is referred to as APT malware. APT malware is a type of advanced malware that is designed for specific targets and poses a greater hazard than ordinary malware. APT-type attacks fol...
