Cyber Threat Hunting
Proactive hunting for Indications of Compromise (IoCs) or Indicators of Attack (IoA) on an ongoing basis or by client request.
What Is Cyber Threat Hunting?
Automated tools such as AV and XDR are able to stop most malware incidents most of the time. However, what you cannot prevent you must be able to detect. Threat hunting is a proactive approach where threat hunters search for IoCs that may have escaped detection by the initial layers of your security defenses.
Your Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) Team
The Ingalls Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) Team actively performs threat hunts on an ongoing basis in all client environments or by client request.
Ingalls MXDR Cyber Threat hunting efforts broadly fit into one of two categories: Hypothesis-Led Threat hunts and Threat Intelligence-Led Threat hunts.
Hypothesis-Led Threat Hunt
Hypothesis-led Threat hunts begin with a hypothesis based on known Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) for particular threat groups, malware behavior, or attacks targeting a specific application, platform, or industry.
Threat Intelligence-Led Threat Hunts
Threat Intelligence-Led Threat hunts begin with specific IoCs or Indicators of Attack, especially for new and emerging threats. These IoCs and IoAs are sourced from industry partners, threat sharing platforms, open-source threat intelligence, and internally sourced threat intelligence (based on Ingalls Incident Response engagements).
