Appendix – The State of the Hunt

Summary

After reading this chapter, you should have a more clear sense of when to get the incident response team involved and what things you need to prepare in order to escalate an incident. Also, you should have learned how to better communicate your team's results to senior management and stakeholders. Keep in mind that this chapter could have been a whole book by itself and the main goal behind it was to give you guidance to understand what to look and be ready for.

You have made it this far: congratulations! This is just the beginning of your hunting journey. But remember, no book will give you the same expertise that good practice will give you. Get your lab, get the frameworks, emulate, hunt, and share with the community!
