Problem
Organizations face increasing challenges in detecting sophisticated cyber threats, including identity compromises, insider threats, and zero-day exploits, which bypass traditional perimeter defenses. Adversaries are leveraging AI to personalize attacks at scale, making them more stealthy and difficult to identify. Existing security solutions often struggle to detect threats targeting real assets until significant damage has occurred.
Solution
Acalvio offers an AI-powered cyber deception platform, ShadowPlex, that proactively defends against advanced threats by deploying a comprehensive layer of deception across IT, OT, and cloud environments. The platform utilizes autonomous deception technology to create and manage decoys that mimic real assets, diverting and engaging attackers early in the attack lifecycle. By analyzing attacker interactions with these decoys, ShadowPlex provides high-fidelity alerts, enabling rapid and precise threat detection. The solution supports identity threat detection and response (ITDR), advanced threat defense, and threat hunting, enhancing an organization's overall security posture and Zero Trust maturity.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes enterprises across various industries, including public sector, healthcare, and financial services, seeking to enhance their cybersecurity posture against advanced threats, identity compromises, and insider attacks.
