Hunt Hypothesis

This hunt targets adversary behavior involving the execution of unknown malware by correlating Azure Sentinel logs against a curated set of 24 ThreatFox indicators of compromise (IOCs). Proactively hunting for these IOCs is critical to identify early-stage infections that may bypass standard signature-based defenses, ensuring rapid containment before lateral movement occurs.
