Managed Threat Hunting Bridges the Talent Gap

This article argues that managed threat hunting (often called MDR) provides immediate maturity and skilled human analysis that many organizations lack, contrasts MDR with traditional MSSPs, and offers practical questions to evaluate providers (frequency of human review, hunting leads beyond IOCs, threat coverage, response assistance, and lessons learned). It emphasizes the skills gap, staff retention benefits of managed services, and the importance of continuous, hypothesis-driven hunts rather than periodic IOC searches.
