Hunt Hypothesis

This hunt targets adversary behavior characterized by the execution of previously unidentified malware signatures across the environment, leveraging a specific set of 33 Indicators of Compromise to detect early-stage infections. Proactively hunting for these unknown IOCs in Azure Sentinel is critical because it enables the SOC team to identify and contain emerging threats before they escalate into widespread incidents that traditional signature-based defenses might miss.
