So why should you care about a cyberattack that might be taking place halfway around the world? Maybe you think you’re unlikely to be targeted by professional cybercriminals? Consider that APT groups—state sponsored or otherwise—put these TTPs and tools to use against any targets of opportunity, so these sophisticated attacks may be heading your way whether you like it or not! Proactive awareness of the inner workings of these campaigns provides the defensive edge you need to help keep your business safe.
