Defense Drill Interventions
Huntress, Thursday, November 5th, 2026
Huntress Defense Drill Interventions pair Managed EDR detections with just-in-time training when users fall for ClickFix attacks.
Huntress found that of more than 25,000 hosts with a ClickFix signal since its Attack Disruption Engine launched in April 2026, 29% made more than one attempt.
To address repeat behavior, it is introducing Defense Drill Interventions, which deliver contextually relevant training right after Managed EDR detects a user falling for ClickFix.
Defense Drills are short, hands-on modules based on tradecraft the Huntress SOC is observing, letting users experience a simulated compromise while a Defense Coach points out warning signs.
The drills can be assigned directly from the portal to reach users faster than full training episodes.
