Effectively combat threats

The largest threat organizations face today is the inability to detect various types of attackers as a compromise occurs.

Organizations can no longer solely rely on reactive technologies, as attackers have learned how to bypass these and move stealthily within the environment. To effectively combat these threats, organizations must engage in Threat Hunting, in which they operate under the assumption that they have already been compromised and search out adversaries in their environment.

Threat Hunting is the process of proactively searching an organization for malicious activity that evades existing security solutions. Even though attackers are skilled at bypassing detection devices, their tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) still leave traces of their activity. By searching for these traces in the environment, threats that are, or have been, active in the environment will be found.
