In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, Threat Hunting is a proactive and reactive approach aimed at identifying and mitigating potential threats before they manifest or respond swiftly to emerging incidents. This dynamic practice involves continuous analysis, detection, and response, enabling organizations to stay one step ahead of cyber adversaries.
Proactive threat hunting involves actively seeking and identifying potential cybersecurity threats before they manifest, employing advanced analytics and methodologies to uncover hidden vulnerabilities and mitigate risks preemptively.
In a reactive stance, threat hunting involves investigating and analyzing security incidents and breaches after they occur, employing forensics and incident response techniques to identify the source, scope, and impact of the threat, enabling effective remediation.
