[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 676604, member: 55987"] I don't think any software with APT have it tested Definition of APT An advanced persistent threat (APT) is a network attack in which an unauthorized person gains access to a network and stays there undetected for a long period of time. The intention of an APT attack is to steal data rather than to cause damage to the network or organization. APT attacks target organizations in sectors with high-value information, such as national defense, manufacturing and the financial industry. In a simple attack, the intruder tries to get in and out as quickly as possible in order to avoid detection by the network's intrusion detection system ([URL='http://searchmidmarketsecurity.techtarget.com/definition/intrusion-detection']IDS[/URL]). In an APT attack, however, the goal is not to get in and out but to achieve ongoing access. To maintain access without discovery, the intruder must continuously rewrite code and employ sophisticated evasion techniques. Some APTs are so complex that they require a full time administrator.
