As the name suggests, Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) are slow and unrelenting cyber-threats that slowly but surely take control of your data networks and cause damage to your IT infrastructure. Highly skilled cybercriminals maintain top-level secrecy while initiating such data security attacks on businesses, government websites and other digital platforms. For organisations in the construction business, APTs can have particularly devastating consequences as they have ultra-confidential data preserved in their storage databases.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to dealing with APTs. The attack mechanism of APTs generally follows a certain mechanism — gradually gaining more and more access through laterally traversing the networks of construction businesses. If the IT teams in such companies are not vigilant, hackers can surreptitiously employ APTs to steal their IP data and sensitive construction and engineering blueprints. To prevent such threats, organisations need to use common measures such as regular patching and employing top-quality intrusion protection systems.
