Threat hunting has become very popular due to the present dynamic cyber security environment. As there remains increase in attacks’ landscape, the traditional way of monitoring threats is not scalable anymore. Consequently, threat hunting modeling technique is implemented as an emergent activity using machine learning (ML) paradigms. ML predictive analytics was carried out on OSTO-CID dataset using four algorithms to develop the model. Cross validation ratio of 80:20 was used to train and test the model. Decision tree classifier (DTC) gives the best metrics results among the four ML algorithms with 99.30\% accuracy. Therefore, DTC can be used for developing threat hunting model to mitigate cyber-attacks using data mining approach.
