IT system breaches have become a staple of news coverage. Deception networks, known also as decoy or honeypot, emerge as a frontline technology to divert cyber attacks elsewhere from vital nodes of IT systems and issue early warning. The Deception Cybersecurity Doctrine assumes that perfect security is unattainable. Given that starting point, and the assumption that all systems are compromised, deception cybersecurity focuses on enabling the continued safe operation in a compromised environment and to have systems that are economically defensible rather than perfectly secure.
Too many doors to enter: Turning asymmetric advantage against attacker by infinitely expanding the attack surface, making it more difficult for attackers to strike.
In the last decade the decoy (honeypot) networks received less public attention than other methods of cyber security. Yet we are getting more and more market intelligence that the decoy network technology is quietly gaining ground at the frontline of the most critical cyber security systems. The decoy (honeypot) network market is rapidly evolving, breaching from an obscure niche into multibillion segment of a broader cyber security market. The next few years will be years of rapid growth the decoy network market at a CAGR of about 19% in the period 2019-2024.
Where does a wise man hide a network? Behind dummy networks. This paraphrased wisdom of Gilbert Keith Chesterton represents the very idea of decoy networks.
With a cumulative market valued at $12 billion (2019 – 2024), the deception cybersecurity market will grow steadily at about 19% CAGR.
The concept of decoy warfare is ages old. Probably the best historical analogy that comes to mind in describing concept of decoy warfare is the dummy airfield of the World War II so vividly described in Ken Follet’s novel “Eye of the Needle”. Operation Fortitude was the codename for a World War II large-scale military deception employed by the Allied nations as part of an overall deception strategy (code named Bodyguard) during the build-up to the 1944 Normandy landings. Operation Fortitude employed hundreds film studio professionals, carpenters and engineers to create dummy airfields. These dummy airfields helped divert German bombers away from British towns and cities and mislead the German high command as to the location of the imminent invasion. Not surprisingly an old concept of decoy networks gets new life as a defensive cyber security technology.
