Threat hunting is a team effort. In IronNet's new whitepaper, Better together: How human insight and automated threat hunting work together, we explore the reciprocal relationship between automated tools and human oversight, examine the benefits offered both by automation and keeping a human in the loop, and offer a step-by-step guide to automating your threat hunting process.
The secret to successful hunts
Cyber threats are evolving. Malicious actors are leveraging the inherent risk of expanding digital surfaces to compromise company networks. From ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) to supply chain attacks, cybercriminals are doing everything they can to gain access and encrypt or exfiltrate data.
Organizations, meanwhile, are struggling with a shortfall of cyber talent, even as current SOC staff suffer from increased stress and burnout. The result? Successful threat hunting efforts now combine the human expertise of in-house talent with the advanced detection capabilities of automated cybersecurity monitoring and threat hunting services to help teams track down, identify, isolate, and remediate potential threats.
In this whitepaper, we cover:
- How the current skills shortage impacts cybersecurity threat hunting
- What automated threat hunting is and how it works
- Why keeping a human in the loop matters
- Which security processes are a good fit for automation
- Where automated threat hunting can benefit your business
- What steps you can take to implement your own automated threat hunting program
Don't wait to automate. Download the whitepaper today and learn how to build a threat hunting program that offers the best of both worlds: (hu)man and machine.
