The APT Cyber Warriors With TTP Weapons to Battle

Abstract

Due to the blooming of Industrial 4.0 such as internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, industrial IoT (IIoT), and artificial intelligence (AI), with their innovative ideas and opportunities, the cyber attacker's modus operandi against the cyber defense triage is incredible. The genre of advanced persistent threat (APT) actors/group are equipped with sophisticated and substantial resources of tools, techniques, and procedure (TTP) at a breakneck pace. The IoT gadgets such as sensors, intelligent devices, and various rapidly emerging resources with energy, memory, and processing power are exponentially prone to multiple vulnerabilities. The nature of IIoT prompts heterogenous and rapid changes ranging the vulnerabilities from simple to complex attacks. APT menace follows the covert TTPs to target the asset of any organization like the government, military, or financial industry.
