How can you better identify and disrupt cyber threats against your organization?
Rapidly uncover time-sensitive insights about cyber threat actors and their motivations so you can disrupt current threats and enhance security measures against future ones.*
Significantly improve detection rates and accelerate time to detect, investigate and remediate threats*
The average business has dozens upon dozens of security tools to worry about. Trust Buchanan to manage your most important tools for you. With a fully staffed Security Operations Center, Buchanan provides 24/7/365 support for our managed threat hunting clients.*
IoC-based threat hunting is the most simple type of threat hunting available and what most of our competitors mean when they say they do threat hunting. Log intensive, this method requires an analyst to search through logs for identifiers (think a known-bad HASH or IP address).*
Tactics, techniques, and procedures – referred to as TTP – are the activity patterns associated with a specific threat actor or group of actors. TTP-based threat hunting requires a tier 2 threat hunter or above to think like an attacker and look for scenario-based attack evidence throughout your network. Buchanan’s approach to hunting for TTP is systematic and thorough, following MITRE ATT&CK® guidelines.*
Significantly improve detection rates and accelerate time to detect, investigate and remediate threats*
Detect, investigate and remediate threat more quickly by uncovering hidden patterns and connections.*
Help your analysts hunt for cyber threats in near-real time by turning disparate data sets into action.*
Benefit from a cost-effective solution that reduces training, maintenance and deployment costs.*
Threat hunting in cyber security is the process of proactively searching across an organisation’s environment to identify hidden threats and shut them down before they cause damage and disruption.*
Threat hunting can help to significantly reduce both mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR) to threats. By proactively uncovering security events and highlighting gaps in threat visibility and coverage, threat hunting can help organisations to better defend their critical assets and reputation.*
A cyber hunt team is the group of experts responsible for performing threat hunting. Typically, a cyber hunt team will contain a mix of security skillsets, and hunt team members will work together to hunt for and shut down threats.*
Using a combination of manual and machine assisted techniques, threat hunters search for indicators of compromise (IOCs) across an organisation’s IT environments. Threat hunters often work under a theory of assumed compromise, hypothesising about threat behaviours to identify intrusions.*
Threat hunting techniques are the practices conducted by threat hunters. These could include the optimisation of security technologies for new sources of telemetry, configuration of custom rulesets and watchlists, incident investigation and kill chain analysis.
Threat modelling in cyber security is the structured process of proactively identifying threats and developing specific procedures and countermeasures to help mitigate them. This helps to determine how resources should be aligned should similar threats arise in the future.*
