Abstract

As Threat Hunting becomes the prominent proactive security activity for Security Operations across the world, many organizations don’t know where to start or how. In this presentation, we will show the attack stages, the defensive side, and show the data science tools and techniques we use to detect these types of activities. This methodology can be applied to multiple scenarios and attacks and will be something attendees can bring back with them after the conference.
