Threat Hunting vs Threat Intelligence

Mon, 12 May 2025 20:11:48 -0400

As part of my learning journey through the Hack The Box Certified Defensive Security Analyst (CDSA) certification, I’ve recently explored a fascinating topic—threat hunting. The more I dive in, the more I realize how important it is to distinguish between threat hunting and cyber threat intelligence (CTI). While both disciplines play vital roles in modern cybersecurity programs, they serve different functions and require distinct approaches.

In this inaugural post for my new blog section dedicated to threat hunting, CTI, and threat actors, I want to explore how these two areas intersect, how they differ, and why both are essential to defending against today’s cyber threats.
