Week 4 Mind Map for APT 40(1)


Environment Creation

1.1 | Choose an Environment to use, most likely VMware

  • 1.1.1 | Make multiple environments with multiple attack types
  • 1.1.2 | Take snapshots of different stages of the malware in progress so that they can be accessed at any point in time

1.2 | Make sure the test points are accessible and are at the right stages


Find Malware/Make Malware

2.1 | Find the different types of Malware that I will have to use in the simulations

  • 2.1.1 | So far I have only found email-based attacks so I will either have to find more attacks they did or supply more than one variation of email attacks

2.2 | If I have to make malware I will have to figure out how to do it

  • 2.2.1 | How to make email-based malware
  • 2.2.2 | What steps do I need to take to make it as realistic as possible

Possible Test Solutions

3.1 | Figure out what types of approaches can be taken against these attacks

3.2 | Create a list of different things that can be tried against these attacks

  • 3.2.1 | Software
  • 3.2.2 | Other

Test Working Simulation

4.1 | Make sure each simulation is working properly

4.2 | Make sure everything is accessible

  • 4.2.1 | Make sure the snapshots are working correctly
  • 4.2.1.1 | The point in the attack is as described
  • 4.2.1.2 | They are able to be used as save points and are replicatable
