CyberTrap: Pioneering AI-Driven Proactive Cyber Defense

At CyberTrap, we are driven by a singular vision: to revolutionize cybersecurity by transforming organizations from reactive to relentlessly proactive. In an era where AI-driven cyberattacks are increasing exponentially and traditional security tools struggle to keep pace as attackers adapt too fast, CyberTrap offers the necessary evolution in cyber defense.

Our core philosophy is simple yet powerful: DETECT, DECEIVE, TRAP, LEARN. We are dedicated to empowering your team to outsmart intrusions and provide an unfair advantage against the escalating tide of cybercrime, which is projected to cost €10.5 trillion annually by 2025 and is already costing $23 billion per day.

Our Mission

Rewriting the Playbook of Cyber Defense

CyberTrap's mission is to offer an AI-driven proactive cyber defense solution that transforms your infrastructure into an intelligent defense mesh. We achieve this by actively defending, detecting, and misleading attackers early.

We believe the real question isn’t "Can we keep every attacker out?" but "What happens in the next 47 minutes?" Our solution is designed to:

  • Identify snooping adversaries before they reach production systems.
  • Divert intruders away from real assets. Lock attackers in a decoy environment to avoid damage.
  • Gather valuable threat intelligence on attackers’ Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs).
  • Ultimately, reduce dwell time to one or two days instead of many weeks or months. Our aim is to cut dwell time from weeks to hours, with first contact happening inside a decoy.

We are the only AI-driven active defense platform in cybersecurity that doesn't just detect threats, it controls, deceives, and eliminates them. This approach allows us to deliver >95% fewer false positives and provide precise, adaptive alerts, significantly lightening SOC workloads.

Our Story

The Evolution of Proactive Defense

CyberTrap is built on a legacy of advanced deception technology, continuously refined since 2015. Our journey reflects the evolution of deception in cybersecurity:

1990s
From the 1990s
Traditional Honeypots (low-interaction, port listeners).
2000s
Into the 2000s
Honeynets (combinations of multiple Honeypots).
2010s
By the 2010s
Honeytokens emerged, utilizing digital entities, fake email addresses, fake executable files, and fake database data.
present
Present Day
We leverage attractive lures and high-interaction decoys to detect, analyze, and defend against zero-day attacks and Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs).
