Turn the tables on advanced attackers inside your network

Attackers who gain access to your environment undetected think they've already won. Deploy deception technology for a proactive defense that lures and reveals sophisticated bad actors through realistic decoys.

The Problem

Attackers compromise zero trust environments through users and apps

When attackers compromise a trusted identity, they can use that access to move laterally, escalate privileges, and hunt down valuable data to encrypt, steal, or destroy. Traditional security tools that rely on signatures or malicious behavior don't detect ransomware, supply chain exploits, or other stealthy attacks carried out by legitimate-looking users.

Product Overview

Detect advanced threats that bypass existing defenses

Zscaler Deception deploys realistic decoys across your environment to lure, detect, and intercept active attackers. When a compromised user interacts with a decoy, your team gets an immediate alert—attackers never know they've been caught until it's too late.

 

As part of the cloud native Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange™ platform, Deception can rapidly and seamlessly deploy high-fidelity threat detection throughout your enterprise.

De-risk your attack surface

Use Cases

Make your network a hostile environment for attackers

Deliver pre-breach warnings

Get early warning signals from perimeter decoys when advanced threat actors like ransomware operators or APT groups are performing pre-breach reconnaissance.

Detect compromised users

Deploy decoy passwords, cookies, sessions, bookmarks, and apps to detect compromised users when an attacker interacts with the deceptive environment.

Stop lateral movement

Use application decoys and endpoint lures to divert and intercept attackers who are trying to move laterally in your environment.

Intercept targeted threats

Surround your high-value assets with decoys that detect and instantly block even the stealthiest and most sophisticated adversaries.

Stop ransomware spread
