Threat hunting has become indispensable for finding advanced criminal, nation-state, and state-backed threats that use popular techniques to evade detection.
But threat hunting doesn’t wait for alerts. Instead, it proactively pursues new and undetected threats missed by critical defenses.
In this point-of-paper paper, some key takeaways include:
• CISOs realize that proactively hunting down advanced threats is often the only way to end the attacker’s “dwell time” after evading detection.
• Creating new hunt content is a common obstacle at all maturity levels that can be solved.
• Threat actors, including APTs, keep reusing the same technique until it no longer works.
