Zero days, vulnerabilities, threat actors and APT groups - day by day new threat actors and sophisticated attack procedures evolve. Depending on the motivation and high-level goals, threat actors might target their attacks to specific or as many targets as possible. Easy access to the required tools makes it even feasible for non- professional threat actors to get into the business. Proactive hunting for threats and patterns is crucial to the initial detection of ongoing attacks. In this session, we will outline the main aspects of threat hunting and identify post-detection steps to pursue a Security professional's main goal; to turn the table and become the hunter instead of the hunted.
