Title

A SURVEY PAPER ON APT (ADVANCED PERSISTENT THREAT) IN CLOUD SECURITY

Abstract

An Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) is a prolonged, aimed attack on a specific target with the intention to compromise their system and gain information from or about that target.The target can be a person, an organization or a business. When these threats were dubbed their targets were governments and military organizations. The word threat doesn’t mean to imply that there is only one kind of malware involved, because an APT usually consists of several different attacks.APTs are cyber attacks executed by sophisticated and well- resourced adversaries targeting specific information in high-profile companies and governments, usually in a long term campaign involving different steps. To a significant extent, the academic community has neglected the specificity of these threats and as such an objective approach to the APT issue is lacking. In this paper, we present the results of a comprehensive study on APT, characterizing its distinguishing characteristics and attack model, and analyzing techniques commonly seen in APT attacks. We also enumerate some non- conventional countermeasures that can help to mitigate APTs, hereby highlighting the directions for future research.

Key Words
