CyberTrap Engage Platform – Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is CyberTrap?

CyberTrap is a deception-based cybersecurity platform that proactively detects and contains attackers using AI-driven digital twins, decoys, and behavioral analysis—without disrupting your production systems.

2. How does CyberTrap protect against cyberattacks?

It deploys believable decoys, lures, and synthetic environments (digital twins) that attract attackers and isolate them before they can access real assets. Every interaction is monitored and analyzed to provide early detection, deep insight, and automated response.

3. What makes CyberTrap different from traditional detection tools?

Unlike reactive systems that wait for signs of compromise, CyberTrap engages threats early by redirecting them into high-fidelity deception environments—buying critical time and exposing attacker intent before damage occurs.

4. What are digital twins in the context of CyberTrap?

Digital twins are realistic, AI-driven simulations of your infrastructure. They include fake users, logins, services, and data—all designed to mislead and study attackers in a safe, isolated environment.

5. Does CyberTrap replace existing security tools?

No. It complements them. CyberTrap integrates seamlessly with SIEM, SOAR, and EDR platforms like Splunk, Elastic, Sentinel, and CrowdStrike, enriching their outputs with deception-based intelligence.

6. What are the core components of the CyberTrap Engage Platform?

The platform includes:

  • Explorer: Asset visibility and behavioral scanning

  • ThreatIQ: Intelligence and risk prioritization

  • Artifact Manager: Lure and trap deployment

  • Deceptor: AI-powered digital twin and decoy control

  • Orchestrator: Ecosystem integration and automation

7. How does CyberTrap detect threats?

By analyzing attacker interaction with fake assets—like honey tokens, breadcrumbs, and decoy systems—CyberTrap detects malicious intent early, often before attackers access any real data.

8. What types of threats can CyberTrap identify?

CyberTrap detects internal and external threats including lateral movement, privilege escalation, stolen credentials use, automated scanning, and targeted attacks—even when other tools fail to alert.

9. How does the AI component of CyberTrap work?

AI is used to:

  • Detect behavioral anomalies

  • Tailor deception complexity to attacker skill

  • Dynamically adapt digital twin environments

  • Prioritize alerts and reduce false positives

10. Does CyberTrap increase false positives?

No. In fact, CyberTrap reduces false positives by over 95% compared to traditional detection systems. All alerts are based on interaction with fake assets—meaning they are highly reliable.

11. How does CyberTrap support threat hunting and forensics?

It captures detailed telemetry of attacker behavior within decoy environments. This data supports advanced threat hunting, forensic investigations, and compliance reporting.

12. What environments can CyberTrap be deployed in?

CyberTrap supports on-premise, public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid deployments. It adapts to complex IT infrastructures with minimal footprint and zero disruption.

13. Can CyberTrap protect remote workers and cloud systems?

Yes. It monitors endpoints and cloud workloads using distributed lures and decoys, ensuring comprehensive deception coverage across modern work environments.

14. Is CyberTrap compliant with major cybersecurity frameworks?

Yes. CyberTrap provides compliance-ready evidence and reporting for frameworks like ISO 27001, NIS2, GDPR, and DORA.

15. How quickly can CyberTrap be deployed?

  • SaaS: < 30 minutes

  • Hybrid: 1 day

  • Air-gapped / On-prem: ≤ 3 days

16. How does CyberTrap help reduce dwell time?

By engaging attackers within the deception layer on first contact, dwell time is cut from weeks to hours, allowing earlier intervention and containment.

17. What is the role of ThreatIQ?

ThreatIQ correlates internal behaviors with CVEs and dark web activity, offering a full picture of threat exposure and helping prioritize defensive action based on attacker skill and intent.

18. What is a honey token, and how does CyberTrap use it?

A honey token is a fake piece of data—like an API key or login—that triggers an alert when accessed. CyberTrap uses them to detect unauthorized access attempts early.

19. What happens when an attacker interacts with a CyberTrap decoy?

The attacker is silently redirected into a digital twin. Their actions are recorded and analyzed while they are isolated from real assets, ensuring containment and intelligence gathering.

20. Does CyberTrap require agent installation on endpoints?

No. CyberTrap operates without installing agents on endpoints. This ensures minimal performance impact and avoids interference with production systems.

21. What’s the ROI of using CyberTrap?

Most customers see:

  • Up to 20% lower incident-response workload

  • Faster breach discovery

  • Measurable compliance benefits

  • Sub-12-month ROI—or immediate in the event of an averted breac

22. Which industries benefit most from CyberTrap?

Critical infrastructure sectors like finance, healthcare, manufacturing, energy, telecommunications, and government benefit greatly due to the platform’s stealth, scalability, and compliance features.
