Social Deception
Human-Centric Security Traps
Social Deception
Create convincing fake user profiles, credentials, and communications that trigger alerts when accessed. Identify social engineering attempts before they reach your actual employees.
Social Deception leverages the power of human-focused security traps to counter the most persistent threat vector in cybersecurity: social engineering. By creating a comprehensive ecosystem of deceptive digital personas, email addresses, and social profiles, our solution helps you detect attackers targeting your organization through human-centric attack vectors.
These carefully crafted deceptive elements appear legitimate to attackers but are closely monitored to detect malicious activities. When an attacker attempts to leverage these fake profiles or credentials, their presence is immediately revealed, allowing your security team to respond before real employees are compromised.
Synthetic Identities
Create convincing digital personas complete with employee profiles, social media presence, and digital footprints that appear legitimate to attackers conducting reconnaissance.
Email Honeypots
Deploy monitored email addresses that appear to belong to key personnel, triggering alerts when targeted by phishing campaigns or unauthorized communication.
Deceptive Credentials
Place convincing but fake authentication credentials in strategic locations that reveal unauthorized access attempts when used to log into monitored systems.
Social Media Traps
Establish decoy social media profiles and groups that appear connected to your organization, revealing attackers attempting research or impersonation.
Digital Communication Lures
Create monitored instant messaging accounts, collaboration tool profiles, and digital communication channels that detect attackers attempting to engage with your organization.
Impersonation Detection
Implement sophisticated monitoring systems that detect when attackers attempt to impersonate executives or key personnel through digital communications.
