Imagine that your company's cybersecurity is like a fortress that needs to be protected against invaders. Threat detection is like guards stationed at the fortress's gates, waiting for an attacker to try and breach the walls. On the other hand, threat hunting is like a scout who ventures beyond the fortress walls, scouting the surrounding areas for any signs of suspicious activity. Threat hunters are always on the lookout for new attack patterns, constantly trying to stay one step ahead of potential attackers. By doing so, they can spot and eliminate threats before they ever reach the fortress's gates.
