Have you ever noticed “threat hunting” in vendor products and wondered exactly what it means? Jamie Williams is here to explain: Threat hunting is the R&D of detection engineering. A threat hunter imagines what an attacker might try and, critically, how that behavior would show up in the logs of a particular environment. Then the threat hunter has to parse out if those logs would be significantly different than normal use logs, because no one wants false alarms all the time. James explains how this process works within vendor companies, as well as how you can threat hunt on your own– those pesky false alarms being a great place to start. And yes, you will hear the portmanteaus “thrunt” and “thrunters” quite a bit in this episode. Prepare yourself. This episode was recorded live at RSA Conference 2024 in San Francisco.
