threat hunting

Threat hunting is the proactive process of searching for signs of malicious activity or potential security threats within a computer network or system. Unlike traditional security measures that react to known attacks, threat hunting involves actively seeking out hidden dangers that may bypass existing defenses. Hunters analyze patterns, behaviors, and anomalies to identify threats before they can cause harm. This approach enhances an organization's ability to detect and respond to cyber threats, ultimately improving overall security posture and protecting sensitive data.
