Insider Threat Detection

Detect insider threats before damage is done

Malicious insiders and compromised accounts have legitimate access. Tracebit deploys canary resources that detect unauthorized exploration, even from trusted identities.

The problem

Insiders already have the keys

Insider threats don't need to bypass your security. They're already inside. Whether malicious employees or compromised accounts, insiders can access sensitive resources without triggering traditional alerts.

How it works

Reveal insider activity with canary artifacts

Deploy realistic decoy files that give insiders a reason to reveal themselves. Tracebit detects use of their embedded credentials, giving your team a signal to investigate.

Step 1

Deploy realistic artifacts

Place decoy documents and configuration files where insiders might look for sensitive information. Keep them outside legitimate workflows.

Step 2

Draw out suspicious activity

The artifacts look valuable, but their contents have no legitimate use. Attempts to use what they contain reveal activity that deserves attention.

Step 3

Detect their use

When someone uses an artifact's embedded credentials, Tracebit alerts your team with context about the activity.

Step 4

Investigate intent

Use that context alongside your existing security data to understand what happened, assess intent and decide how to respond.
