About this listen

Scott Poley and Tom Kostura are joined by Ben McGavin, Threat Hunting Team Lead at RSM Defense, and Justin Dolgos, Senior Threat Hunter at RSM Defense, for a conversation on what it takes to build and run a threat hunting program inside an MSSP.

They walk through how their team prioritizes hunts, manages detection logic across multi-tenant environments, and scales their approach through SoC collaboration and hypothesis-driven routines. Ben shares how the program was built from scratch, and Justin breaks down the lessons learned moving from alert triage into full-time threat hunting. They also cover tooling gaps, visibility challenges, and how custom detections have become a key success metric for their team.

This episode offers practical insight from two hunters operating at the heart of a fast-moving MSSP environment.
