Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform 2.0 was released on April 7, 2017. 

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform is a solution designed for the protection of a corporate IT infrastructure and the timely detection of threats such as zero-day attacks, targeted attacks, and complex targeted attacks known as advanced persistent threats (hereafter also referred to as "APT").

The product has been developed for corporate users and can be integrated into the corporate IT infrastructure in the following ways:

  • Integrate into the local area network, receive and process mirrored traffic, and extract objects and meta data from HTTP-, FTP-, and DNS protocols, as well from the SMTP protocol.
  • Connect to a proxy server, receive and process ICAP data of HTTP and FTP traffic, as well as HTTPS traffic if the administrator has configured SSL certificate replacement on the proxy server.
  • Connect to a mail server and process copies of email messages arriving via the POP3(S) and SMTP protocols.
  • Install sensors or integrate with Kaspersky Endpoint Security on individual computers that belong to the corporate IT infrastructure and run the Microsoft Windows operating system in order to constantly monitor the processes running on those computers, active network connections, and files that are modified. 
  • Integrate with the Kaspersky Lab product Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway and process copies of email messages.
  • Integrate with Kaspersky Private Security Network (hereafter also referred to as "KPSN"). Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform has access to Kaspersky Lab’s online Knowledge Base, which contains regularly-updated information about the reputation of files, web resources, and software. The use of data from Kaspersky Security Network ensures that Kaspersky Lab applications respond faster to unknown threats, improves the effectiveness of some protection components, and reduces the risk of false positives.
