Threat Hunting at Scale: Explore 10.6B URLs to Find Payloads, C2s, and Exposed Assets with URLx

This document provides a practical guide to threat hunting with Hunt.io’s URLx dataset and HuntSQL, detailing URL field structure, example queries for detecting malware delivery, suspicious infrastructure, phishing redirectors, exposed credentials/configs, IOC dumps, recon targets, and API misconfigurations. It also outlines post-query enrichment workflows—exporting results and using ProjectDiscovery’s httpx for validation, tech detection, screenshots, keyword grepping, and proxying—to turn large URL datasets into actionable hunting signals.
