Adam Burns, Principal Cybersecurity Architect at Fortra, contributed an article to SecurityBrief UK examining how threat hunting is evolving in response to AI-driven attacks and subtle data misuse. The article highlights why security teams must move beyond reactive alerts and focus on identifying risky data behavior earlier in the attack lifecycle.
Excerpt: “Attackers and users are interacting with data in ways that continue to evade traditional detection tools. In some ways, this is a testament to how effective we've become at catching the obvious threats. But it also means our strategies must evolve to stay ahead of the quieter, more nuanced risks that centre on data.”
