We spoke with John Jensen, Founder & CTO at Silent Push, about the challenges of preemptive threat detection, from predicting malicious infrastructure to identifying hidden attack signals.

We asked about early indicators in newly registered domains, adversaries rotating hosting and DNS providers, modular phishing kits, and how security teams can prioritize without being overwhelmed.

Here are some of the insights from our conversation:

⏫Warning about soon-to-be malicious infrastructure relies on multiple factors working in concert.
⏫Malicious infrastructure shares specific characteristics, enabling attribution and analytical assessments.
⏫Automation and modularization are the weak links for fingerprinting modular phishing kits.
