At SockPuppet, we empower government agencies to conduct secure and effective online investigations with the attribution they choose, whether fully anonymous or tailored to specific operational requirements. Our mission is to streamline the creation, management, and operation of digital personas, enabling federal, state, and local organizations to focus their time and expertise on investigative objectives.
Our flagship platform, Alias, provides all of the digital infrastructure components needed to conduct secure online investigations and build credible digital personas. This includes virtual desktops, virtual mobile devices, SMS numbers, realistic geo-specific connectivity, managed attribution controls, and built-in security—all designed to keep your operations consistent, effective, and protected.
For organizations seeking to shift ownership of the entire digital persona lifecycle, our Sockpuppet-as-a-Service (SPaaS) combines digital infrastructure with full persona creation and management into a single solution. Investigators spend an average of 20% of their time creating, maintaining, and troubleshooting sockpuppets—including dealing with suspensions and rebuilds. SPaaS frees your team from this burden by delivering ready-to-use, fully managed digital personas aligned with your mission requirements. We handle suspensions, troubleshooting, and persona rebuilds as needed, all for a simple fixed monthly fee so your investigators can spend more time investigating and less time managing infrastructure and social media accounts.
Whether your team needs robust digital investigation infrastructure to ensure OPSEC and proper segmentation of each investigation, or fully managed sockpuppet operations, SockPuppet provides the tools and expertise to protect your mission and achieve your objectives with confidence.
