Course Description

This skill-based training is designed for cybersecurity professionals looking to master Threat Hunting and DFIR methodologies. Participants will gain hands-on experience in detecting, analyzing, and mitigating cyber threats using hybrid detection techniques, active defense strategies, and real-world case studies. The course covers MITRE ATT&CK, NIST Incident Response, malware analysis, persistence techniques, and adversary tracking, ensuring learners can respond to sophisticated cyberattacks. Participants will also explore network hunting, memory forensics, disk forensics, and anti-forensic techniques, equipping them with the ability to uncover and analyze hidden attack footprints. The training culminates in a capstone challenge, where participants reconstruct a full attack chain and produce both technical and executive reports.

FAQs

1. What is the purpose of threat hunting?
Effective threat hunting shortens the time between intrusion and detection, allowing attackers to cause less harm.
2. What are the 5 steps of threat hunting?

The 5 steps of threat hunting are:

  • Hypothesis
  • Collect and Process Intelligence and Data
  • Trigger
  • Investigation
  • Response/Resolution
3. What are the most difficult aspects of threat hunting?
For most SOCs, the price of licences and data storage make collecting and storing all security data for real-time and historical analysis too expensive. Querying enormous amounts of data might take a long time to respond to.
4. What tool may be used in threat hunting?
  • Security Monitoring Tools- Firewalls, antivirus, and endpoint security solutions are examples of security monitoring technologies that collect data and monitor the network.
  • SIEM Solutions- Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), assist in the handling of raw security data and enable real-time threat analysis.
5. What is the broad definition of threat hunting?
Threat hunting is the practise of locating potential attackers before they can launch an assault. Threat hunting is a proactive strategy that blends human analysis and instinct with security technologies, analytics, and threat information.
6. Which method of threat hunting is regarded as the least difficult?
By far the most simple process of hunting is searching. Searching entails using preset search parameters to find data about certain items.
7. Is threat hunting and threat detection the same thing?
Threat detection is a way of detecting known threats that is usually automated, whereas threat hunting is a creative process with a flexible methodology that focuses on the hunter seeking the hacker.
8. Which method of threat hunting is the most proactive?
The technique of proactively searching through networks or datasets to discover and respond to sophisticated cyberthreats that circumvent standard rule- or signature-based security measures is known as proactive threat hunting.
