Why this module exists. Threat hunting — proactively searching for adversary presence — is the discipline that catches what alerts miss. This module covers operationalised hunting: hypothesis development, the hunt cycle, pivots and dashboards, and the metrics that demonstrate value.

What threat hunting is

Proactive search for adversary presence based on hypothesis, not alert. The defender assumes a sophisticated attacker may already be present and searches for traces that current detection rules would miss.
