Company mission

To reduce the time it takes to detect and contain security incidents from months to minutes.

Our take

Tracebit is a cybersecurity company specialising in intrusion detection solutions using deception techniques, such as canaries and honeypots. While effective, these methods are often costly and complex, limiting their broader use. Tracebit addresses these challenges by leveraging modern cloud practices for quick and efficient scaling.

By connecting securely to cloud environments and recommending realistic canaries based on unique profiles, Tracebit allows users rapid deployment through infrastructure-as-a-code. As environments evolve, Tracebit continuously adapts its canary configuration to keep potential intruders guessing, ensuring ongoing protection.

Recent funding will allow the company to further its developments and expand its team, enabling the company to broaden its offerings. With this strong backing and innovative approach, Tracebit is ready to solidify its position in the cybersecurity space.
