Illusive Networks Offers Email 'Deception' Security Service

Illusive Networks has introduced Email Data Deceptions, a tool designed to detect and thwart efforts by cyber attackers to use data stolen from emails.

It is part of a product suite called Data Deceptions that also includes Network Deceptions, Endpoint Deceptions, Data Deceptions and Application Layer Deceptions.

Email data is especially valuable to attackers because they can use it to laterally move across a company’s network as if they were employees, illusive states.

Illusive combats this with “data-level deceptions” that steer the perpetrators away from their desired information. Deceptions at that level are “very difficult to create,” said Ofer Israeli, CEO of illusive, in a statement.

The firm also alerts enterprise security teams when attackers attempt to use stolen data.

Illusive’s solutions make use of its Deception Management System, a machine-learning technology based on “continuous real-time environment analysis,” the company stated.

The company also has products such as Attacker View, which exposes hidden cyber attack paths; and Advanced Ransomware Guard, that blocks ransomware at the source host, illusive said.
