Describe common tactics, techniques, and procedures to include threat actor types.

Advanced persistent threats (APTs) have been thrust into the spotlight due to their advanced tactics, techniques, procedures, and tools. These APTs are resourced unlike other types of cyber threat actors.
Your chief technology officer (CTO) has formed teams to each develop a detailed analysis and presentation of a specific APT, which she will assign to the team.

Part 1: Threat Landscape Analysis
Provide a detailed analysis of the threat landscape.
What has changed over the past year?
Describe common tactics, techniques, and procedures to include threat actor types.
What are the exploit vectors and vulnerabilities threat actors are predicted to take advantage of?
Part 2: APT Analysis
Provide a detailed analysis and description of the APT your group was assigned. Describe the specific tactics used to gain access to the target(s).
Describe the tools used. Describe what the objective of the APT was/is. Was it successful?
Part
6: Ethics in Cybersecurity

o Do you think the vulnerability(ies) exploited by the
APT constitute an ethical failure by the defender? Why or why not?

o For the APT your group studied, were there
identifiable harms to privacy or property? How are these harms linked to C-I-A?
If not, what ethically significant harms could result from the scenario your
group researched?

o For the APT your group studied, when the targeted
organization identified the breach, was the disclosure made with transparency?
Do you feel the organization acted ethically? Why or why not?

I have attached the APT file as well as a template.
