Most security programs react to attacks that have already reached them. PeakCyber’s threat intelligence and threat hunting services change that: we help you anticipate threats before they arrive, and proactively search for adversaries who may already be hiding in your environment.
What is threat intelligence and threat hunting?
Threat intelligence is the collection, analysis and contextualization of information about the threat actors, campaigns and techniques that target your organization and sector. Threat hunting is the proactive search for signs of an attacker in your environment that existing alerts have not caught. Together they turn security from a reactive function into an intelligence-driven discipline.
What we offer
External threat intelligence
Profiling of threat actors and campaigns targeting your organization and your sector, so you know who is likely to attack you and how.
IOC and TTP tracking
We collect, contextualize and prioritize indicators of compromise (IOCs) and attacker tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs), and weigh which ones pose the most immediate risk to you.
IOC feeds
Current, contextualized indicator feeds that can be integrated with your SIEM, EDR and firewall, with detection rule recommendations.
Dark-web and credential-leak monitoring
Continuous monitoring of dark-web marketplaces, leak forums, Telegram channels and paste sites for your domains, brands, executives and email addresses, including brand abuse and credential leaks.
Hypothesis-driven threat hunting
Instead of relying only on known signatures and alerts, we assume an attacker may already be inside and test hypotheses built on MITRE ATT&CK techniques against your data.
MITRE ATT&CK mapping
Every actor, campaign and hunt is positioned on the ATT&CK matrix, so you can see where your detection coverage is strong and where it has gaps.
SOC and red team integration
Intelligence feeds your SOC and managed security detection, and drives red team scenarios that emulate real threat actors. This closes the attack-defense loop through purple teaming. See our Red Team & Purple Team and Managed Security services.
Reporting for leadership
Threat-landscape and sector reporting, and executive summaries that translate technical findings into risk language leadership can act on.
Our methodology
- Priority Intelligence Requirements (PIRs). Every engagement starts from your organization’s priority intelligence needs, so collection and analysis focus on what matters to your business instead of reporting everything we see.
- Intelligence cycle. Direction, collection, processing, analysis and dissemination.
- Structured analysis. MITRE ATT&CK mapping, the Diamond Model (adversary, capability, infrastructure and victim) and the Cyber Kill Chain help connect seemingly unrelated activity to the same actor or campaign.
- Source reliability. We assess sources and evidence to filter out noise and false positives.
- Hypothesis generation and testing. Hunting hypotheses are developed, tested and turned into detections and findings.
What you receive
- Organization-specific threat actor and campaign profiles
- Contextualized IOC lists ready for SIEM and EDR, with detection rule recommendations
- Dark-web and credential-leak alerts with prioritized response recommendations
- Threat hunting findings mapped to MITRE ATT&CK
- Intelligence that drives red team scenarios and purple teaming
- Executive summaries and a prioritized defense roadmap
- A reporting cadence aligned with your PIRs, so updates match your actual requirements
Who needs it
Organizations with a SOC or security team that want better detection, companies in sectors frequently targeted by organized threat actors, brands exposed to impersonation and credential theft, and any organization that wants to move from reacting to alerts to anticipating attacks.
