Cyber Threat Hunting Services

It’s time to go on the offensive, and start hunting for undetected attackers in your system. Often times, you can’t tell if your system has already been compromised. With A-kar Cyber Threat Hunting services, our experts will looking for signs of intruders and get them out of your systems quickly.

What is a Cyber Threat Hunt?

Cyber threat hunting, or cyber hunting, actively searches for undetected attackers that are present in a network or environment.

Once they gain access to your environment, threat actors often work to disguise or obfuscate their presence in order to remain undetected so they can exfiltrate data, steal confidential material, or learn how to move laterally to other internal systems or environments.

These advanced persistent threats are difficult to identify and remove and doing so requires sophisticated detection capabilities.

Features Overview

Cyber Threat Hunting Features

Planning and Scope

A-kar works with customer personnel to review the engagement objectives and completes a pre-assessment questionnaire to determine the full scope of the cyber threat hunting assessment. We then develop a hunt hypothesis that is the foundation of our activities.

Investigate and Diagnose

A-kar evaluates each identified anomalous activity further to determine the nature of the activity, whether there is malicious intent, and to understand the activity’s scope and impact. MPG provides feedback and support to the client by ensuring any hypotheses are integrated into future detection signatures.

Evaluation and Reporting

At the end of the cyber threat hunt, we provide a thorough analysis of the assessment results, generate the Final Assessment Report, and conduct briefings to key stakeholders. The report includes a root cause analysis to determine the most effective approach for remediation, and contains actionable feedback to address systemic issues.
