Course Description

What Is Cyber Threat Hunting Corporate Training?

The process of proactively looking for security threats that are hidden unnoticed in the company’s network system is known as Cyber Threat Hunting. It involves a passive approach (threat detection) that constantly monitors network endpoints to identify anomalies, and an active approach (threat hunting) to look for cyber threats that were not identified earlier.

The Cyber Threat Hunting process is usually performed after the cyber threat detection phase, where automation solutions are deployed to catch easily identifiable threats. It doesn’t wait for an Indicator of Compromise (IOC ) alert to trigger; instead, it creates a hypothesis-based approach backed by threat data to hunt down any lurking threats.

This course aims to make you a Cyber Threat Hunting Expert, along with mastering the threat hunting process, methodologies, and techniques, as well as the best approach to be followed while hunting for network and host threats.
