In-Use Deception.

Why should I use next-generation "In-Use" Deception?

If you are impatient…

Adversary interaction with passive classic deception elements are not guaranteed. This lack of immediate feedback on adversary presence or lack of presence frustrated our founder, who wanted the adversary to announce themselves. If they are in the environment and want to use privileged credentials and hosts, they must interact with Frenetik.

Is this a SaaS offering?

No. Well, not yet.

Frenetik runs on a Linux machine in your own environment.

Do you use AI/ML?

No.

Frenetik does not utilize AI/ML. We find AI/ML incredibly useful, in some cases, but believe the solution to the problems we face in IT/Cyber are, generally, not found in more computation and analysis. For us, your protected user either knows the current in-use username or hostname via their out-of-band notification, or they don’t – it’s as simple as that.

What access or visibility do you have into each customer deployment?

None.

We do not have the ability to send or receive anything to or from a customer deployment.

You mean I get alerted randomly to change the privileged usernames I use and/or the FQDN's of the resources I use?!?!

Yep.

Suck it up, buttercup. The adversary loves your static environment more than you do. The usernames and assets in rotation, and the frequency of change is configurable, though, so if daily is too much, maybe try weekly or monthly! The point is to keep anyone watching you from getting too comfortable. Yes, there is a “frenetik” (a random offset to changes) option, as well.

Is this commercial software?

Yes.

Frenetik is Commercially off-the-shelf (COTS).

This is a great product for Defensive Cyber Operations, but can I use it for Offensive Cyber Operations, or something else?

Of course.

I can think of a few ways Frenetik could be utilized by OPSEC-focused offensive operations in mind. Reach out to us to chat.
