Automated detection catches known threats. Threat hunting catches the rest. Kantakafoo's expert hunters go beyond rules and signatures — proactively searching your environment for sophisticated adversaries that have evaded your defences.
Threat hunting is the practice of proactively searching through your environment to identify adversaries who have bypassed existing security controls. Unlike automated detection, threat hunting is hypothesis-driven — hunters develop theories about how an attacker might behave in your environment, then look for evidence to confirm or deny them. Kantakafoo's threat hunters are experienced in adversary tradecraft and use the MITRE ATT&CK framework to structure every hunt.
Each hunt begins with intelligence gathering — reviewing current threat actor activity, industry-specific campaigns, and newly observed TTPs relevant to your environment.
Hunters develop specific, testable hypotheses about how an adversary might operate in your environment — based on ATT&CK mappings and intelligence.
Relevant data is collected from SIEM, EDR, network traffic, and identity logs — and analysed using both manual investigation and advanced analytics.
Evidence is evaluated to confirm or refute each hypothesis. Suspicious findings are escalated to incident response if an active threat is confirmed.
Validated hunt findings are converted into automated detection rules and playbooks — so future occurrences are caught automatically.
Kantakafoo delivers threat hunting as a fully managed service — meaning you get expert coverage without the cost or complexity of building it in-house.
Talk to Our TeamEvery hunt is informed by the latest threat intelligence — tracking adversary groups actively targeting your sector and geography.
Deep investigation of endpoint artifacts — process trees, memory forensics, registry changes, and persistence mechanisms used by advanced attackers.
Analysis of east-west network traffic to detect lateral movement, command-and-control communications, and data staging for exfiltration.
Hunting for credential abuse, Kerberoasting, pass-the-hash, and abnormal privileged account behaviour within Active Directory and cloud identity systems.
Threat hunting within AWS, Azure, and GCP environments — detecting compromised cloud identities, unusual API calls, and cloud-native attack techniques.
All hunt activities are mapped to MITRE ATT&CK — providing measurable coverage across tactics and techniques with gap analysis reporting.
No in-house security team needed. We handle the complexity so you can focus on your business.
