Abstract | Deception has always been a key strategy in war, politics, and commerce, but now this technique is being utilized in the battle of cybersecurity. Cybercriminals have applied this technique through the development and launch of cyberattacks such as phishing. Deception technology is now emerging as a security defense method for enterprises. The implementation of this technology could help lure hackers away from sensitive assets once they have successfully infiltrated an organization's network. |
