Built for Government and Preemptive Cyber Defense.
- Reveal hidden exposures across hybrid Active Directory, legacy infrastructure, and segmented networks—without intrusive scanning.
- Deploy deceptive credentials to catch misuse of privileged accounts, cached logins, and remote access tokens.
- Use decoys to detect unauthorized activity from internal personnel, contractors, or compromised supply chain systems—without profiling behavior.
- Intercept polymorphic malware, zero-days, and AI-driven attacks by luring them into false systems before they impact mission-critical operations.
Acalvio’s deception platform aligns with key frameworks and strategic mandates:
- National Defense Authorization Act (2023) – Endorses active defense
- NIST SP 800-172 – Recommends deception for advanced persistent threats
- CISA Strategic Technology Roadmap (2022–2026) – Supports adoption of advanced cyber deception
- Zero Trust Architectures – Uses identity- and behavior-based detection to strengthen verification
See What Attackers See—Before They Act
- Map attacker movement across hybrid AD, legacy systems, and segmented environments
- Reveal unmanaged assets, shadow admins, and stale credentials
- Monitor exposure without relying on scans or endpoint agents
- Deploy deception to observe access attempts silently and in real time
Expose Misused Credentials Before They Become Breach Vectors
- Embed honeytokens to detect misuse of privileged or shared accounts
- Identify abuse of cached credentials and remote session tokens
- Catch credential-based attacks that evade logs and traditional tools
- Generate high-fidelity alerts tied to confirmed adversary behavior
Trust but Verify—Catch What Policy Alone Can’t
- Deploy targeted decoys to expose internal misuse and policy violations
- Detect unauthorized access by contractors, integrators, or supply chain actors
- Avoid profiling—rely on interaction with decoys to confirm intent
- Capture defensible telemetry to support investigation and escalation
Break Their Kill Chain Before It Begins
- Detect reconnaissance and staging activity before execution
- Trap polymorphic, fileless, and AI-generated malware through engagement
- Observe real-time adversary behavior and extract TTPs
- Break attacker workflows before they reach mission-critical systems
Deception Use Cases for the Public Sector
Deploy honeytokens in AD, Entra ID, and federated systems to catch misuse of privileged accounts and session tokens.
Use realistic decoys to emulate agency portals, citizen services, and case systems—without exposing live assets.
Identify adversaries interacting with Kerberos, LDAP, and unmanaged SPNs as they attempt to move laterally or escalate access.
Expose unauthorized access from staff, vendors, or partners using decoys embedded in sensitive systems.
Surface advanced threats—including polymorphic or AI-generated malware—based on engagement, not signatures.
Use agentless deception across SaaS, IaaS, and on-premise systems where visibility is limited or agents can’t be deployed.
Identify exposed service accounts, shadow admins, and lateral pathways through identity systems—then deploy deception to monitor them.
Confuse adversaries by presenting deceptive data, endpoints, and infrastructure, reducing signal clarity and slowing attack planning.
Deliver triaged, intent-based alerts with rich forensic evidence—reducing analyst workload and enabling rapid incident response.
Frequently Asked Questions
Acalvio enables early detection of advanced threats, including insider activity, credential misuse, and supply chain compromise, without disrupting operations. Its agentless architecture and stealthy deployment make it ideal for segmented, legacy, and sensitive systems where uptime and control are critical.
Cyber deception aligns with NIST SP 800-172, EO 14028, and CISA’s Strategic Technology Roadmap. The 2023 National Defense Authorization Act also reinforces the value of active defense in protecting national security systems.
Yes. ShadowPlex supports deployments in isolated networks and high-security environments, including SCIFs and restricted OT networks. Its agentless design and flexible architecture allow for secure, compliant implementation.
