[...] la chasse aux menaces consiste à rechercher proactivement [les menaces] dissimulées sur le réseau. [...] les chasseurs de menaces ne se contentent pas de réagir aux menaces; ils les recherchent activement. Cette approche consiste à émettre des hypothèses sur l'existence de menaces potentielles qui sont ensuite soit confirmées, soit démenties en fonction des données recueillies lors de leur analyse. 4, record 1, French, - chasseur%20de%20cybermenaces
