What is Cyber Threat Hunting Training about?

Cyber Threat Hunting is a proactive approach to identifying and mitigating hidden cyber threats before they cause damage. Unlike traditional reactive defenses, threat hunting combines security analytics, threat intelligence, and investigative techniques to uncover malicious activity that evades standard detection systems. This course equips learners with the skills to conduct threat hunts, analyze attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), and use tools like SIEM, EDR, and behavioral analytics platforms. Participants will gain hands-on experience in building threat hunting hypotheses, executing hunts, and improving organizational cyber resilience. 

What are the objectives of Cyber Threat Hunting Training ?

  • Understand the fundamentals of cyber threat hunting and its role in cybersecurity. 
  • Develop and test hypotheses to detect advanced persistent threats (APTs). 
  • Use SIEM, EDR, and threat intelligence tools for proactive detection. 
  • Analyze attacker behaviors using the MITRE ATT&CK framework. 
  • Strengthen incident response and enhance overall security posture.

Who is Cyber Threat Hunting Training for?

  • SOC Analysts and Incident Responders. 
  • Cybersecurity Engineers and Threat Hunters. 
  • Security Architects and Penetration Testers. 
  • IT professionals interested in advanced security defense. 
  • Anyone preparing for cybersecurity threat detection roles.
