- Threat Hunting
Find the hidden security threats your tools missed before they become incidents.
NRI’s Threat Hunting services proactively identify hidden threats, advanced adversaries, and indicators of compromise that evade traditional security controls, helping you reduce risk, reduce time to respond to critical threats, and strengthen your overall security posture.
Why NRI for Threat Hunting
Most security tools detect what they are designed to find—but today’s threats are designed to evade detection.
NRI’s Threat Hunting services take a proactive, analyst-driven approach to uncover hidden threats, advanced malware, and potential compromises across your environment. Instead of waiting for alerts, we actively search for the unknown helping you answer a critical question:
“Has there been a security incident we haven’t discovered yet?”
- Proactively identity threat vectors and vulnerabilities that bypass traditional tools
- Search for active threats
- Validate the security integrity of your environment
- Strengthen resiliency against attacks
- Move from reactive detection to proactive defense
What We Deliver
Threat Hunt Assessment
Uncover hidden threats across your environment with structured, analyst-led hunting.
- Identification of indicators of compromise (IOCs) across systems
- Detection of persistent threats, advanced malware, and adversarial activity
- Validation of technical integrity across your environment
- Clear recommendations to improve security posture and readiness
Threat hunting engagements typically span approximately four weeks and are designed to detect threats that have evaded existing controls and monitoring capabilities.
Indicator of Compromise (IOC) Scanning
Cast a wide net to identify malicious activity across your environment.
- Broad scanning across diverse systems and user groups
- Detection of known malicious indicators, malware, and attacker techniques
- Identification of advanced threats including command-and-control activity and persistence mechanisms
IOC scanning enables rapid identification of suspicious behaviors and artifacts across endpoints, servers, and systems.
In-Depth System Analysis
Go deeper into the systems that matter most.
- Detailed analysis of high-value and high-risk systems
- Review of files, logs, processes, configurations, and system activity
- Identification of abnormal behaviors, suspicious processes, and hidden threats
NRI focuses on critical systems such as authentication services, production platforms, and systems containing sensitive data to uncover threats that require deeper inspection.
Threat Analysis & Risk Assessment
Turn findings into actionable intelligence.
- Identification and validation of active or historical compromises
- Impact analysis of detected threats
- Prioritized remediation recommendations and next steps
This ensures organizations not only detect threats—but understand their business impact and how to respond effectively.
Reporting & Visibility (sCOREcard)
Track findings, risks, and remediation with clarity.
- Executive summary and technical findings reports
- Risk severity, affected systems, and actionable recommendations
- sCOREcard for interactive dashboards, tracking, and reporting
With sCOREcard, organizations can consolidate data, track trends, and monitor remediation progress across their security program.

Don’t wait for an alert to tell you something is wrong.
With NRI Threat Hunting, you can proactively uncover hidden threats, validate your security posture, and act before damage occurs.
FAQ
What is threat hunting and how is it different from traditional detection?
Threat hunting is a proactive, analyst-driven process that searches for hidden threats that evade traditional detection tools. Unlike automated alerts, it focuses on uncovering unknown or stealthy adversary activity.
What does an NRI Threat Hunt Assessment include?
The assessment includes IOC scanning, in-depth system analysis, threat analysis, and reporting. It combines broad environment scanning with deep analysis of high-value systems.
How long does a threat hunting engagement take?
Typical engagements take approximately four weeks, depending on scope, system complexity, and environment size.
What types of threats can be identified?
hreat hunting can identify advanced malware, command-and-control activity, persistence mechanisms, suspicious processes, abnormal user behavior, and previously undetected compromises.
What happens if a threat is found?
If active threats are discovered, organizations can immediately transition to incident response processes. The assessment also provides prioritized recommendations to mitigate risk and improve security posture.
