CipherSentry adapts to the specific needs of every industry. From high-security banking to managed MSSPs.
Banks, insurers and fintechs with critical infrastructure and strict regulatory obligations.
A SOC team deploys internal honeypots in administration subnets to detect lateral movement. Every access attempt to the honeypot is a high-value signal: nothing legitimate should ever connect.
Government bodies, defense and critical infrastructure with data sovereignty requirements.
A public body deploys honeypots on its perimeter network. The logs stay on its own infrastructure. Detected reconnaissance patterns are reported internally or to the reference CERT.
Network operators, ISPs and infrastructure providers with thousands of exposed devices.
An operator deploys honeypots across its most exposed IP ranges. When an IP starts trying default network-equipment credentials, the alert arrives before the scan reaches real devices.
Managed security service providers covering multiple clients.
An MSSP includes the honeypot as an additional sensor in its base service. The monthly honeypot activity reports become tangible evidence of the value delivered to the client.
