What is the Cyber Kill Chain? Why Does It Matter?

1. Reconnaissance: Attackers collect information about the staff from the target company e.g. email address, public info in social network platforms, etc. By using tools, attackers can scan websites or systems to find out which type and version is being used by the company.
2. Weaponization: Attackers look for tools or design their own tools to execute the cyber attacks, e.g. backdoor, trojan, etc.
3. Delivery: Attackers deliver weaponized packages to the victim via email, web, flash drive, etc.
4. Exploitation: Attackers exploits a vulnerability to execute code on the victim's system.
5. Installation: After the exploitation stage, malware will be installed on the victim’s system. This ensures attackers have long-term access and control of the victim’s system.
6. Command & Control: This part is also called C2. It is a common channel for remote manipulation of the victim.
7. Actions: Take action to accomplish their original goals.
