Here's what canary detection by Tracebit looks like when it's built, from the start, for the modern cloud. If you live within infrastructure-as-code and multiple clouds, your canary deployment should work the same way. Tracebit was built for that environment.
“We had the in-house skills and knowledge to deploy canaries ourselves, but when we considered the effort across all of our environments we estimated it could easily take a year full time to be production ready. With Tracebit we only spent an order of weeks of engineering hours to gain full coverage.”

Modern security programs depend on deception as a core control, and Tracebit delivers it at the highest level.
Chief Information Security Officer
Canary-based detection is a critical layer in Docker’s defense-in-depth strategy. Tracebit makes deploying and managing deception at scale practical.

Chief Information Security Officer, Docker
The Tracebit platform delivered on their promise of low friction and low noise. We were able to quickly and confidently roll out Tracebit!
Head of Security, IT & Compliance
Tracebit’s platform enables high fidelity alerts, is quick to deploy, easy to maintain and secure by design. Their solution delivers actual value and is getting better by the day.
Head of Security
We deployed something like a few hundred canaries within our environment, and it took… a few minutes. It’s been pretty seamless for us.

Built for modern cloud teams where infrastructure is code.
Tracebit is designed for modern cloud engineering organizations running multiple cloud accounts, shipping infrastructure via Terraform, and operating at a scale where manual processes don't keep up. Customers that choose Tracebit:
Manage AWS, Azure, or GCP at scale across multiple accounts and regions
Deploy infrastructure and detection engineering as code with an automation forward pipeline
Defend an attack surface that includes local machines, CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes clusters, cloud identity, and developer tooling, a cloud stack beyond just your network
Explored deception as a detection methodtried to scale a canary program before and hit a wall in coverage, maintenance, or both
Your perimeter isn't just the network anymore.
Modern attackers move through compromised open source dependencies, escalate IAM roles, pivot through CI/CD pipelines, and exfiltrate data with compromised credentials. The attack surface is everywhere your infrastructure runs or is dependent.
Tracebit deploys canaries natively across every layer of the modern cloud environment:
Cloud platform
Deploy via AWS, Azure, and GCP integrations. Credentials in compute, containers, and serverless.
Kubernetes
Deploy as secrets and environment variables in your clusters. Works with EKS, AKS, GKE.
API
Full API access for deep customization. Deploy credentials anywhere via your own automation.
Workstations
Push to endpoints via Intune, Jamf, Iru. Catch infostealer malware and insider threats.
CI/CD Pipelines
Inject into build systems and artifact stores. Detect supply chain attacks and pipeline compromise.
Your perimeter
Issue credentials against services on your own domains.
Fully scalable and automated coverage in two months
No more manual deployments a few times a year
Network or hardware-based deception can cause your team to spend a year in deployment, while ending up with a handful of honeypots or canaries covering a fraction of your environment. When your infrastructure is measured in hundreds of cloud accounts that is a sizable gap.
Tracebit connects to your environment using infrastructure-as-code, the same way your team deploys everything else. No hardware to rack. No per-device licenses. No manual maintenance, one token at a time. Connect once and Tracebit analyzes your environment, deploys canaries that blend authentically into your infrastructure, and scales automatically as you grow.
Legacy canaries quickly fall out of sync with your evolving environment
A canary that stands out may as well not even exist
Static canaries create two problems. First, they drift out of sync with changes to your environment, becoming easier for sophisticated attackers to spot and avoid. Second, when they eventually trigger, you can't tell whether that credential was accessed this morning or stolen two years ago and used now.
Tracebit's AI-driven approach continuously profiles your infrastructure looking at naming conventions and resource types, automatically rotating your canaries as your environment changes. Every canary reflects your current environment. When one triggers, you get the full audit context: exactly when it was set, exactly when it was accessed, and the forensic detail to respond immediately.

“Security is here to enable the business, not create obstacles, so naturally a key part of our success criteria was not disrupting our engineering teams. I’m happy to say that the Tracebit deployment delivered on this goal.”
