Integrate threat hunting into the SOC triage process to mitigate software supply chain risk

With the continual evolution of malware, it is often too late to prevent the initial infection by the time a security alert is generated. Additionally, malware files are frequently changing, rendering file name or hash-based alerts fundamentally useless.

The ability to triage an alert retroactively, evaluating functionality over a signature, is a critical capability to quickly mitigate the spreading of malware. 

Here are key insights into second- and third-tier Security Operations Center (SOC) investigations — and how a robust threat-hunting …
