Deception is a commonly used strategy in warfare deployed with the intent of causing one’s enemy to make mistakes. Deception is an active and proactive defense measure that can make one stronger than is actually the case based on available resources.

Deception technologies and techniques are evolving and finding their way into the mainstream cybersecurity battle.
