Threat actors like APT29 use Application Layer Protocols for Command and Control (C2) so they can blend in and avoid detection. They also may attempt to steal data and exfiltrate it to a cloud storage service as the end-goal of their attack. In this course, you will learn about these techniques and get practice detecting them in our virtual lab.
