In threat hunting, there are no solutions that are “one size fits all”
When traditional Protections Fail, Threat Hunting helps explore the hidden advanced persistent threats (APTs) in the network. The general security hygiene practices, automated security tools, firewalls, and antivirus are effective in stopping the majority of threats from intruding into the network. But when an intruder enters into the network by bypassing these security measures, it is very difficult to identify the presence of the intruder in the network, with these traditional security mechanisms.
As per research, it is known that a cybercriminal spends an average of 191 days in an organization’s network before they are detected, and this is a very long time for the intruder to easily cause huge damage to the organization’s data. After an attack is encountered organizations generally perform a forensic investigation to evaluate the events that led to the attack to happen. In contrast to forensic investigation, threat-hunting targets explore the waiting attackers and stop them in their paths before they have the chance to create real damage.
It is evident that the organization’s automated security tools and tier 1 and tier 2 security operations center (SOC) analysts are capable enough to restrict and handle almost 80 percent of the threats. But still, there is a need for organizations to think about that 20 percent, where there is a huge chance for the modern-day attackers to include advanced persistent threats (APTs) that will cause noteworthy damage.
Unlike the general and automated threats, the attacks performed by the advanced persistent attackers easily evade the advanced tools that are in place to restrict the intruder’s activity, they directly target the organization’s network. In comparison with the general hacking attempt, an APT needs higher attention and significantly more effort from the response teams and Security Operations Centre (SOC).
Most security tools today focus on visibility and blocking at the point of entry in order to protect systems. However, the proliferation of threats far outpaces these network defense tactics, and the subsequent gap can never fully be closed. No new technology will adequately address this security dynamic. Instead, a new criterion is required: a defense model that anticipates mitigates, and remediates an attack.
Today to successfully defend your organization against cyber-attacks, you are required to foresee your threat actor’s actions in advance to be able to implement protective means. This dependency places pre-emptive threat intelligence gathering at the core of cyber-security.
