Abstract

Deception engineers play a crucial role in cybersecurity by introducing sophisticated threat detection mechanisms and deceptive measures. Their work involves designing traps, decoys, and lures strategically placed within systems to confuse attackers and gather valuable intelligence. By leveraging tools like moving target defense, they create a dynamic cybersecurity landscape that hinders adversaries and strengthens the organization's proactive security measures. Collaboration with other cybersecurity professionals and conducting realistic simulations further enhances defenses. Overall, deception engineers bolster cybersecurity by detecting threats, gathering intelligence, and staying ahead of evolving attack vectors. This article discusses the profession of deception engineering.
