Allentown-based tech firm Velaspan Inc has launched Active Cyber Engagement (ACE), presented as the industry’s first active defence cyber deception managed service. ACE is designed to improve a company’s cybersecurity posture without the need for additional tools or resources. The service utilises digital decoys, breadcrumbs, baits and lures to detect, deter and contain malicious cyber threats. Decoys, such as virtual images of network devices, are created and deployed onto the network, along with lures including weak credentials and vulnerabilities. Bait is also placed on enterprise assets to act as tripwires for active alerts. The service functions as an additional defence layer alongside perimeter security measures, protecting against insider or outsider threats, zero-day threats and ransomware. In the event of an active breach, Velaspan’s team will work in tandem with the customer’s security team to engage adversaries and contain the breach.
