Security Nation Episode 16:

Deception Inception, LLC

October 28, 2016

Justin Pagano, Information Security Lead at Rapid7, heads onto Security Nation to talk with both host Kyle Flaherty and Matt Hathaway about deception technologies. What are they? What do they do? How do they help? And how you can get started today. "Deception" is in danger of becoming yet another security buzzword, but the group tries to rein it in and talk practical uses around:

  • Deploying honeypots, honey users, honey creds, and more
  • Using old tokens or user accounts as honey users
  • What to look for from these deception technologies and how it can help reduce risk
  • Kyle's startup idea gets floated and sunk in the span of 45 seconds
