Deception technology is all about deceiving the intruders so they are unable to find what they are looking for. When hackers enter an organization, they start looking for valuable information, including cookies, passwords, emails with credentials and account names and passwords. The challenge is to lure the attacker into the traps, while ensuring the actual user of the asset does not touch the decoys. Security teams are able to study the methods used and proactively map out which decoys were most enticing. With deception technology, security teams can get back the upper hand once the attacker or malware has entered the network.”]
