    Seems like the definition of advanced persistent threat.

      It isn’t persistent over a reboot, but the tested devices received new corrupted iMessages immediately after reboot

        Persistent in APT isn’t referring to the malware itself, but rather the threat actor. I meant that this seems like a textbook APT actor.

          You know what else was also super sophisticated, chained, and confident enough in it’s APT to not be persistent across reboots? DOUBLEPULSAR.
