What is Proactive Threat Hunting?

Threat hunting is the active search for “unknowns or lurked threats,” which describes new and novel attack behaviours that have the ability to evade automated methods of prevention and detection.

Undetected cyber threats are lurking in organizational networks. Proactive Threat hunting helps you detect attacks you never saw coming.

Studies shows, on average, it takes 10-days to detect an advanced threat, 39 days to mitigate & 43 days to recover from an advanced attack. While the ability to stop advanced threats improves each year, we face adversaries who are determined and creative in approach, and their techniques evolve just as quickly. So, It is hard to defend what you can’t see & understand using traditional security controls.

The condition raises a few questions: –

  • When prevention falls, what do we have left to defend our organizations?
  • How can we discover gaps as fast as possible?

Proactive Threat Hunting Process

Proactive Threat Hunting Process

Identifies unknown threats

Threat hunting helps you detect unknown/advanced threats that have the capability to sidestep traditional tools.

Complete Threat Coverage

Combined with traditional tools, proactive threat hunting enables organizations to identify all threats lurking around their IT environment.

Stronger Security Posture

Proactive threat hunting approaches cyber risks through an approach that is proactive in hunting and remediating unknown threats

Beyond Alerts & IOCs

SIEM Alerts and IOCs provide a great deal of support for Incident Response. However, the most effective threat hunts are open-ended searches and are not restricted to alerts and IOCs.

Faster Incident Response

Threat hunting results feed into the incident response process. Early detection of an unknown threat, helps the IR team respond to them quickly before it becomes a disaster.

Higher confidence

Security analysts take a comprehensive approach to identifying what happens within an organisation’s IT operations. It results in gaining deep knowledge about your IT and operations.
