No Managed Detection and Response (MDR) framework is truly comprehensive without a dedicated unit of threat hunters actively scouring your ecosystem for adversaries, employing the complete spectrum of hunting methodologies:
Indicator of Compromise (IOC)-Based Threat Hunting: This constitutes the most elementary tier of threat hunting and is often the sole technique referenced by competitors. As a log-intensive strategy, it mandates that analysts examine records for specific identifiers, such as recognized malicious HASH values or IP addresses.
Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTP)-Based Threat Hunting: This advanced practice requires the expertise of Tier 2 threat hunters or higher to adopt an adversarial mindset, seeking scenario-based evidence of intrusion throughout your network.
Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR): We possess the capacity to scan and analyze volatile memory across over 1,000 devices per hour. This capability empowers us to proactively utilize hunting techniques that were previously rendered unfeasible by labor constraints, ensuring no potential threat remains concealed. Should any malicious process be executing or scheduled within your environment, our analysts are guaranteed to discover it.
