Honeypots for the agentic era

Give attackers
someone to talk to.

stickysweet is persona-first deception: synthetic identity infrastructure for understanding how adversaries approach people across email, voice, messaging, and social channels.

Human-layer honeypots. Proprietary adversary telemetry for teams that want a security data advantage.

A new deception layer

The honeypot is a person.

Instead of waiting for an attacker to discover a server, put a believable synthetic identity into the world and observe who approaches it.

Persona builder

Build someone worth approaching.

Believable deception starts with consistency across a person's identity, organization, assets, communications, relationships and digital footprint.

One coherent identity, not a collection of decoys.

Engagement direction

The trap talks back.

stickysweet is designed around governed persona interactions. The exchange below illustrates that product direction; it is not a live capability claim.

Attacker

Hi Sarah, this is Mark from IT. We detected a problem with your account.

Sarah

Hi Mark. What do you need me to do?

Attacker

I just sent you an authentication request. Can you approve it?

Multi-channel model

One identity. Across channels.

Email, voice, SMS, social, messaging, and agent interactions belong to one synthetic person. Channel availability is scoped with each program.

Security data advantage

Own threat telemetry other teams can’t buy.

Elite security teams use stickysweet to create a security data advantage: proprietary threat telemetry generated when adversaries engage with synthetic identities deployed across email, SSO, web, voice, and more.

Deploy synthetic identities where attackers operate. See who engages with them, how they move between channels, and what infrastructure they reuse.

01Your telemetry

Generated against your organization instead of purchased from the same commodity feeds as everyone else.

02Cross-channel context

Connect identity, infrastructure, tactics, and repeated contact across sensor types and synthetic personas.

03No ingest tax

Unlimited interaction telemetry. No per-event, per-log, or per-GB pricing that discourages collection.

Campaign intelligence

These are not three independent alerts.

Three alerts can be one adversary. The stickysweet intelligence model brings interactions together around the people approached, shared infrastructure, actors, and campaigns.

MSSP & cybersecurity collaboration

Build the observation network together.

We're interested in working with MSSPs, threat intelligence teams, security vendors, incident responders, and researchers who want to extend synthetic identity coverage or develop new ways to turn adversary interaction into useful security data.

Bring stickysweet into a managed service, connect it to an existing security stack, or collaborate on research, integrations, and new sensor coverage.

01MSSP programs

Deploy repeatable synthetic identity coverage for customer environments while preserving clear organizational and sensor boundaries.

02Security integrations

Connect adversary telemetry into SIEM, SOAR, threat intelligence, detection engineering, and investigation workflows.

03Joint research

Explore campaigns, infrastructure reuse, cross-channel behavior, and emerging agentic attack patterns with controlled telemetry.

Operating model

How it works

01

Build the persona

Create a complete synthetic employee and digital identity.

02

Create exposure

Give the identity controlled presence across selected channels and systems.

03

Define engagement

Set the boundaries for how suspicious contact can be observed or engaged as capabilities become available.

04

Develop interaction intelligence

Organize observed actors, infrastructure, tactics, relationships, and campaign context.

Identity infrastructure

Deception starts with identity.

Believable engagement requires durable identity infrastructure: a governed system for who the persona is, where they exist, and how their history evolves.
