We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Censys Threat Hunting Module on June 9th. This launch represents a major advancement in helping security teams proactively track and defend against adversaries — before they strike.
At Censys, we’ve long been trusted by threat hunters for our unparalleled Internet visibility. Now, we’re taking things even further. Our new Threat Hunting Module, part of the recently released Censys Platform, empowers security teams to shift from a reactive to a proactive security posture — accelerating investigations, eliminating threats earlier, and ultimately strengthening defenses across the enterprise.
Turning Internet Map Data into Actionable Insights
Built specifically for threat hunting and CTI teams, the Censys Threat Hunting Solution integrates seamlessly into your existing security operations, enhancing detection pipelines and investigation workflows.
By automatically turning raw Internet Map data into structured, actionable intelligence, security teams can quickly identify malicious infrastructure adversaries use to target their organizations. With faster detection and smoother investigation pivots, your team can find, track, and dismantle threats before they can cause harm.
Built By Threat Hunters, For Threat Hunters
“One of the biggest pain points for us threat hunters is the inability to acquire timely and relevant data that enables proactive defense against targeted threats,” said Silas Cutler, Principal Security Researcher at Censys who helped to architect the new solution. “The new Censys Threat Hunting module solves that challenge by delivering real-time visibility into malicious infrastructure — helping security teams track evolving threats with unmatched precision.”
What’s Inside the Censys Threat Hunting Solution
Here’s a closer look at the capabilities we’re delivering to security teams:
- Censys Threats Dataset: Access detections for red team tools, malware fingerprints, extended threat context (alternative names, threat actors, references), and more.
- CensEye: Correlate malicious infrastructure faster by detecting similar hosts and web properties — helping you uncover adversarial assets and track threats in real time.
- Live Discovery and Scanning: Perform real-time threat validation with on-demand scanning to expose unknown configurations and confirm risks with systematic rescans.
- Exploration Dashboards: Dive into interactive dashboards for visibility into threat frameworks, anomalies, and investigation opportunities.
- Certificate & Host History Visualization: Uncover adversary tactics and build weaponization timelines by exploring historical relationships between hosts and certificates.
- Advanced Pivoting with Contextual Hashes: Use configuration-based hashes (JARM, JA3, JA4+, favicon hashes) to quickly expand your investigation across related infrastructure.
