### Overview
Persistence has been achieved through registry modification, a common tactic used by **APT1** to maintain long-term access to compromised systems.

### Tactics
- **Registry Changes**: Modifications are made to ensure malware execution upon system startup.
- **Stealth Techniques**: Changes are often subtle and blended with legitimate entries to avoid detection.

### Recommendations
- Regularly audit and compare registry entries against known baselines.
- Deploy tools that can detect unauthorized registry modifications.

### Next Steps
Focus on detecting **Credential Dumping** activities, as APT1 looks to escalate privileges and move laterally within the network.
