Hunt Hypothesis

This detection rule identifies potential botnet command-and-control activity by flagging traffic to a curated set of 52 known malicious domains associated with active botnets. A proactive hunt is essential in Azure Sentinel to rapidly isolate compromised endpoints and disrupt botnet propagation before adversaries can establish persistent footholds or initiate lateral movement within the network.
