"Threat Hunting, often referred to as Incident Response without the Incident, is an emergent activity that comprises the proactive, iterative, and human-centric identification of cyber threats that are internal to an Information Technology network and have evaded existing security controls. Departments that operate a Threat Hunting capability will improve their security posture and hence reduce risk, as malicious activity can be identified earlier on in an attack, thereby minimising the opportunity for adversaries to disrupt, damage or steal.
