# Perform link analysis and threat hunting

# Perform link analysis and threat hunting using MITRE-ATT\&CK specific
filters {#ariaid-title1}

Correlate and perform link analysis of observables, security incidents, and MITRE-ATT\&CK related information so that your organization can start hunting for
threats.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_ti.mitre_analyst, sn_si.read

## About this task

After you associate the security incidents with MITRE-ATT\&CK information, you can use the MITRE-ATT\&CK specific filters for threat hunting. Use the MITRE-ATT\&CK filters with the existing Security Incident Response filters to correlate and perform link analysis.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllSecurity IncidentsShow All Incidents.
2. Click Update Personalized List to add the MITRE columns.
3. Select a filter condition so that you can view MITRE related information and associations with security incidents or observables:  
   * MITRE-ATT\&CK Adversary Group
   * MITRE-ATT\&CK Data Source
   * MITRE-ATT\&CK Procedure (Malware)
   * MITRE-ATT\&CK Procedure (Tools)
   * MITRE-ATT\&CK Tactic
   * MITRE-ATT\&CK Technique
   {#link-analysis-threat-hunt-mitre__ul_izd_cxv_mmb}
4. Create a filter condition that is based on the above criteria and click Run to perform a link analysis or correlation between security incidents, observables, and MITRE-ATT\&CK related information.  
   Note:  
   The MITRE-ATT\&CK data is stored as a string and you can only use contains as the operator for filter conditions.

   For example, if you want to review that a configuration
   item (CI) is compromised, you select a CI. You then correlate the CI with
   techniques that are present by adding a MITRE-ATT\&CK Technique
   ID. You can then continue to build your filter criteria to correlate the
   information and for threat hunting.
