Proactive Threat Hunting

Hypothesis-driven hunting through your environment for signs of compromise that automated tools have missed, based on real adversary behaviour rather than waiting for an alert.

How it works

Inside Proactive Threat Hunting

01

Assume Something Got Through

Detection tools miss things. Threat hunting starts from the assumption that an attacker may already be inside.

Our methodology

We run hypothesis-driven hunts based on real adversary behaviour and TTPs, searching for compromise your automated tooling has not flagged.

  • Proactive
  • TTP-based
02

Behaviour, Not Just Signatures

Sophisticated attackers avoid known signatures, so hunting looks for behaviour.

Our methodology

We hunt across endpoint, network and identity telemetry for the subtle behaviours that signatures miss, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK.

Findings That Improve Detection

Every hunt should leave your automated defences better than it found them.

Our methodology

We turn what we find into new detections, so a hunt improves ongoing coverage as well as surfacing current threats.

FAQ

Proactive Threat Hunting FAQs

What is proactive threat hunting?

It is hypothesis-driven searching through your environment for signs of compromise that automated tools have missed, based on real adversary behaviour and TTPs, rather than waiting for an alert to fire.

Why hunt if we already have EDR and a SIEM?

Because sophisticated attackers evade automated detection. Hunting looks for the behaviours signatures miss, and every hunt feeds new detections back into your tooling.

Do you need access to our logs?

Yes. We hunt across endpoint, network and identity telemetry, so scoped access to that data or your SIEM is required. We agree scope up front.

Is it one-off or ongoing?

Both are available: periodic hunts, or an ongoing program that continuously tests assumptions against fresh intelligence.
