High-Fidelity Detection
At Cloud Scale
We enable organizations to deploy early-warning honey tokens and resources at scale to catch adversaries before they pivot deeper.
Most Organizations Struggle to Deploy Deception Technology at Scale
Existing deception solutions don't provide the primitives, token catalog, automation, and tooling needed for deployment at scale. They require dedicated security engineers to own and maintain, made harder by architectural limitations and API rate limits, ultimately preventing widespread adoption.
For organizations already running deception technology: did it actually catch your last red team engagement?

When Deception Technology Works, It Works Immediately
During red team engagements, we rarely saw deception technology deployed. When we did encounter it, blue teams detected us immediately. The difference: digital assets that have no legitimate purpose trigger alerts the moment adversaries interact with them. No behavior analysis. No baselines. Just definitive detection.
We built DeceptIQ to provide the detection capability we wish every organization we compromised had in place.
Book a DemoThe Attack Is The Alert
Traditional detection relies on inference. Observe behavior, compare to baseline, alert on deviation. This produces false positives. Early warning honey tokens eliminate inference. Credential validation is the indicator. There's no behavior to baseline, no threshold to tune. Someone attempted authentication with a credential that should never be used. That's your signal.
Zero False Positives
Every alert is definitive proof of unauthorized access. No behavior baselines to tune. No thresholds to configure. Credential validation is the signal. Early warning at the point of credential validation, before any damage.
Sub-10 Second Detection
From credential validation to alert in under 10 seconds. Real-time monitoring with complete attack timeline and full context. Timestamp, source IP, authentication details. Automatic correlation into incidents with full relationship mapping.

DeceptIQ: Building Your Market
We built and maintain the infrastructure for early warning detection at scale. Token generation infrastructure, isolated providers that prevent fingerprinting, lifecycle management across ephemeral and persistent credentials, programmatic deployment into dynamic infrastructure, real-time monitoring and alerting. This is the operational burden that prevents adoption.
Isolated Infrastructure
Every token deploys from isolated infrastructure we manage. AWS credentials originate from thousands of accounts across different organizations. Federation tokens generate from distributed provider configurations. ECR tokens authenticate against separate registries.
No shared infrastructure to fingerprint. No correlation possible across token populations. Each credential appears legitimate because it originates from genuine provider infrastructure, infrastructure we monitor.
Automation at Scale
- API enables programmatic token issuance at scale
- Kubernetes operators deploy ephemeral tokens into pods automatically
- CI/CD pipelines inject tokens into build environments
- Generate millions of tokens daily if your deployment demands it

Who Know How Adversaries Think
As former red teamers, we've compromised organizations with million-dollar security budgets running best-of-breed solutions. We didn't restrict ourselves to exploiting technology. We exploited people and their processes.
Early Warning Honey Tokens
Give Adversaries Options
As a former red teamer, I was always looking for low-risk, high-reward decisions. This risk calculus has held for years. Early warning honey tokens exist to break it.

At Cloud Scale
We looked at enterprises who successfully deployed deception technology: what they did, what worked, what they wanted. Coupled with our experience as adversaries, we rebuilt it from first principles.
