Advanced malware, sometimes referred to as advanced persistent threats (APT), are malware strains engineered with advanced capabilities for infection, communication and control, movement, or data ex-filtration/payload execution.
An advanced persistent threat is an attack in which an unauthorized user gains access to a system or network and remains there for an extended period of time without being detected. Advanced persistent threats are particularly dangerous for enterprises, as hackers have ongoing access to sensitive company data. Advanced persistent threats generally do not cause damage to company networks or local machines. Instead, the goal of advanced persistent threats is most often data theft.
