Cyber Deception Enablement

Cut Breach Dwell Time
From 207 Days to Hours

Know within hours when attackers are in your network.
Not after they've stolen everything.

The Hidden Crisis

They're Already Inside
Using Valid Credentials

Attackers compromise trusted identities to bypass your zero-trust controls.
Then hunt for data while looking like legitimate users.

Identity Attacks Your Security Stack Can't Stop

External Threats:

  • • Compromised vendor accounts
  • • Stolen employee credentials
  • • Supply chain access abuse
  • • Living-off-the-land attacks

Insider Risks:

  • • Malicious employees
  • • Departing staff data theft
  • • Contractor access abuse
  • • Accidental data exposure

When legitimate users become the threat, you need a new approach.

Deception catches what identity-based attacks try to hide.

The Solution

Know Where It Matters,
When It Matters

Deploy irresistible bait that legitimate users would never touch.
When attackers take it, you'll know.

100+ Decoy Assets

Carefully crafted decoy assets are deployed across your infrastructure

SIEM Integration

Alert rules and runbooks for your existing Splunk, Sentinel, or other SIEM platform

Response Playbooks

Step-by-step procedures when deception assets are accessed or modified

Reality Check

What This Is (And Isn't)

What You Get

  • High-fidelity alerts when attackers access decoy assets
  • Visibility into lateral movement that EDR might miss
  • Documentation and training for your SOC team
  • Custom deployment based on your infrastructure

What You Don't Get

  • Prevention – attackers must breach first to trigger alerts
  • Zero false positives – legitimate mistakes can trigger alerts
  • Magic dashboard – you use your existing SIEM
  • Instant deployment – proper setup takes weeks

Risk Management

Known Risks
& Mitigations

Implementation Risks

  • False positives from legitimate admin activityMitigation: Whitelist procedures & training
  • Asset discovery by sophisticated attackersMitigation: Realistic placement & naming
  • Alert fatigue if poorly configuredMitigation: Careful tuning & documentation

Success Factors

  • SOC engagement is criticalThey must understand & trust the alerts
  • Executive buy-in for process changesResponse procedures may need updates
  • Maintenance commitment post-deploymentAssets need periodic updates to stay effective
