Python-Based Threat Detection and Incident Response
After exploring various areas of offensive and defensive security with Python and its numerous applications, it is now necessary to dig into the field of threat detection and incident response. In today’s complicated cyber threat landscape, detecting and responding to security issues quickly and efficiently is critical. This chapter will concentrate on using Python to develop effective threat detection systems and automate incident response, resulting in a comprehensive and proactive security posture.
In this chapter, we will discuss the following major topics:
- Building effective threat detection mechanisms
- Real-time log analysis and anomaly detection with Python
- Automating incident response with Python scripts
- Leveraging Python for threat hunting and analysis
- Orchestrating comprehensive incident response using Python
