Understanding the Cyber Deception Market

Cybersecurity is a dynamic field where adversaries are always seeking advantage and defenders must always be on the lookout for new attacks. Mitigating risks in this field is always a challenge. Enterprises looking for economical ways to reduce risks are increasingly turning to cyber deception technologies. These cyber deception platforms augment current defenses through various techniques designed to attract an attacker to “fake” systems, credentials, files, or other network resources. An attacker targeting these systems alerts security operations to their presence and the attacker also expends precious time and resources targeting decoy resources that provide them with no value in the attack kill chain.

Although deception tools have been part of the defender’s arsenal for several decades, years of fast-paced innovation in this domain has resulted in a modern suite of offerings that bring advanced automation and unique approaches to this sub-domain.
