In today’s cybersecurity landscape, threat detection and threat hunting are vital in protecting IT systems, especially in environments like Data Centers. While the two are often interrelated, they serve distinct purposes.
Threat Detection
Threat detection is an automated, reactive process that monitors for known threats using tools like IDS, SIEM, and endpoint detection platforms. It’s designed to alert organizations about potential risks based on predefined rules and threat intelligence.
Threat Hunting
Threat hunting is a proactive, human-driven process where skilled analysts actively search for hidden or advanced threats. It focuses on uncovering unknown vulnerabilities and sophisticated attacks that evade automated detection.
Key Differences
Aspect – Threat Detection – Threat Hunting
Method – Automated monitoring – Manual investigation
Focus – Known threats – Advanced/unknown threats
Approach – Reactive – Proactive
