A New Approach to Threat Hunting

In today’s threat landscape, organizations require more than just traditional detection tools to stay ahead. Complex, hybrid infrastructures combined with rising attack sophistication demand a shift from reactive defenses to proactive threat hunting.

Fortinet outlines how combining Network Detection and Response (NDR) with Deception Technology enables security operations centers (SOCs) to improve visibility, increase detection fidelity, and accelerate response across diverse environments.

Key Takeaways:

• Unified Threat Visibility: Monitor all network activity, including unmanaged and IoT/OT assets, with behavior-based analysis and decoy engagement.
• Reduced Operational Burden: Minimize false positives and streamline triage to enable security teams to focus on real threats.
• Advanced Threat Detection: Identify anomalous activity, even in encrypted traffic, and surface indicators that evade traditional tools.
• Faster, Informed Response: Leverage integrated threat intelligence and attacker engagement data to isolate and respond more efficiently.
