Illusive Deception Platform

Illusive Deception Platform (now part of SentinelOne Singularity) is an enterprise cyber deception and active identity defense solution engineered to stop cyber adversaries from moving laterally across enterprise networks and executing ransomware attacks. While perimeter and endpoint security tools focus on detecting known malware signatures and malicious behaviors, Illusive focuses on an attacker's inevitable need to discover credentials and map network paths. Illusive deploys a deceptive fabric of synthetic credentials, decoy database connections, fake domain administrator accounts, and false network shares directly into endpoint memory and local caches across every managed endpoint. Because these deceptive assets are invisible to legitimate human users but enticing to malicious attackers, any interaction with an Illusive decoy immediately triggers a high-fidelity, deterministic alert with zero false positives. The platform captures instantaneous forensic snapshots of the compromised endpoint, detailing the attacker’s identity, processes, and tools. Illusive also includes Attack Surface Manager, which continuously identifies and cleans up residual cached credentials and misconfigured local admin privileges that attackers exploit. By neutralizing lateral movement and eliminating identity attack surfaces, Illusive stops breaches before data theft or ransomware execution can occur.
