Threat Detection

Malware Analysis Techniques for Detection and Mitigation Malware analysis helps defenders understand threats, map their behavior, and build stronger defenses. It combines careful study of a sample with controlled testing in a safe environment. Analysts look for what the code does, how it hides, and how it spreads. The goal is to gain reliable signals that trigger automatic detection and to design mitigations that lessen impact for users and organizations. ...

Detecting Threats: SIEM, SOC, and Incident Response Threat detection is a steady workout for security teams. It combines three elements: SIEM, a Security Operations Center (SOC), and a clear incident response plan. Together they help organizations find, understand, and quickly respond to threats. A SIEM helps by collecting data from many sources, normalizing it, and applying rules to spot patterns that look risky. It turns raw logs into usable alerts and dashboards. A SOC is the people and the processes that watch those signals all the time, triage alerts, and coordinate responses. Incident response is the formal process that guides how to contain, eradicate, recover, and learn from each incident. When these parts work well, you get faster detection, clearer decisions, and less downtime. ...

Detecting and Responding to Cyber Threats Threats to online systems come from many directions. Detecting them early helps protect people, data, and operations. Clear practices reduce confusion during an incident and speed up recovery. This guide offers practical steps anyone can use, from small teams to larger organizations. What to watch for Unusual login times or locations Many failed login attempts or password resets New devices or apps appearing Sudden spikes in network traffic or data volumes Unrecognized outbound connections User reports or automated security alerts For example, a sudden rise in outbound DNS requests at night may hint at a beacon or data exfiltration. Prompt checks on impacted hosts and recent changes can confirm if this is a threat or a misconfiguration. ...
