It\u2019s the culmination of a three-year effort starting with trials with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/2022\/01\/26\/defense-innovation-unit-highlights-2021-technology-transition-efforts\/\" target=\"_blank\">Defense Innovation Unit,<\/a> where CounterCraft competed with 20 other cybersecurity firms, it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CounterCraft\u2019s distributed Deception Platform creates automated \u201cdigital breadcrumbs\u201d to bait hackers into thinking they are penetrating computer networks. The technology approach allows government agencies to get information on attackers\u2019 and objectives while misdirecting them, in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEnabling commercial solutions and advancing public-private partnerships is a strong move by GSA and other forward-thinking federal organizations to stay ahead of threats from nation-state adversaries,\u201d says CounterCraft\u2019s COO Amyn Gilani. \u201cWe are committed to supporting our warfighters with innovative solutions for defense cyber operations and nontraditional cyber initiatives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-smg-jwplayer-video\"><atype-video-jwplayer nostick=\"true\" playlisturl=\"https:\/\/cdn.jwplayer.com\/v2\/playlists\/fCzRqMW8?tags=e3ba9f8f-e061-4eca-92e0-fff031eed928\" poster=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/video-poster-e3ba9f8f-e061-4eca-92e0-fff031eed928.jpg\" aspectratio=\"16 \/ 9\" mute autostart=\"false\"><\/atype-video-jwplayer><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Craig Harber, a veteran of the NSA and CTO of Fidelis, explains how his company employs deception technology.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier, this week, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/cyber\/2022\/10\/05\/us-says-hackers-attacked-defense-organization-stole-sensitive-info\/\" target=\"_blank\">hackers infiltrated a unnamed defense industrial base organization<\/a> and maintained \u201cpersistent, long-term\u201d access to its network while absconding with sensitive data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The unidentified intruders used&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/attack.mitre.org\/software\/S0357\/\">an open-source tool kit called Impacket<\/a>&nbsp;to gain a foothold in the organization\u2019s systems, according to a government bulletin. They then used a tailored exfiltration tool known as CovalentStealer to make off with files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded in 2015, CounterCraft is present in London, New York and Madrid, with R&amp;D in San Sebastian. The company recently raised additional funding from venture capital firms including cybersecurity-specific funds Adara Ventures, eCAPITAL, In-Q-Tel and Evolution Equity, bringing the total investment to date to $10 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Members of CounterCraft\u2019s growing U.S. support team has held positions at the NSA, CIA, FBI, DHS, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army and more, bringing decades of federal experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Company&#8217;s software creates \u201cdigital breadcrumbs\u201d that trick hackers into falsely
