The IOA-Based Intelligent Information Protection System for Response of Advanced Persistent Threats

MLDS: Multi-Layer Defense System for Preventing Advanced Persistent Threats

Here we report on the issue of Advanced Persistent Threats (APT), which use malware for the purpose of leaking the data of large corporations and government agencies. APT attacks target systems continuously by utilizing intelligent and complex technologies. To overthrow the elaborate security network of target systems, it conducts an attack after undergoing a pre-reconnaissance phase. An APT at...

Defending Against Advanced Persistent Threats

Schemes for Surviving Advanced Persistent Threats

Mission critical systems are prevalent in the military and industry which renders them attractive as targets for security attacks. Their constantly increasing structural complexity contributes to benign faults and further facilitates malicious entities. Over the years, these malicious entities in cyber-space have grown smarter and extremely resourceful. Advanced persistent threat (APT) is a cle...

Diagnosing Advanced Persistent Threats: A Position Paper

When a computer system is hacked, analyzing the root-cause (for example entry-point of penetration) is a diagnostic process. An audit trail, as defined in the National Information Assurance Glossary, is a securityrelevant chronological (set of) record(s), and/or destination and source of records that provide evidence of the sequence of activities that have affected, at any time, a specific oper...

Protecting Industry 4.0 against Advanced Persistent Threats

The SADCIP project has arisen from the need to deal with increasingly intelligent and autonomous industrial and monitoring systems, capable of collaborating with each other to meet a common objective: provide efficient and real-time manufacturing and logistics from anywhere, at any time and anyhow [1]. However, any new condition that implies open communication with the Internet and the adaptati...
