Episode 36 dives into how cybersecurity teams deploy honeypots and deception grids to catch attackers early. Lucas explains how one mid-size healthcare company used a fake database filled with decoy patient records to detect a ransomware group before they encrypted real systems. Luna questions whether deception tools are legal in regulated industries, and the hosts discuss the rise of active defense strategies. They also explore a 2025 case where a European bank caught state-backed hackers using a decoy server. The episode covers practical deployment tips, the difference between low-interaction and high-interaction traps, and why CISOs are adding deception to their stack alongside EDR and SIEM. If you work in security operations or are curious how defenders go on the offensive, this episode offers a concrete look at a growing technique.
