Cyberattacks have become more capable of infiltrating corporate networks with malware by skillfully deceiving the target, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to prevent infections before they occur. Regarding web servers that are open to the public, the frequency of attacks increases and alerts occur more frequently as attack techniques become well known. It is thus becoming difficult to determine which attack to respond to. In this article, the forefront of cyberattack countermeasures focusing on traces left by attacks is discussed to address this issue.
