Wooltrap
A data deception platform that wraps real credentials in protective 'wool' while filling databases with convincing 'mirage' records that act as venus flytrap honeypots. When attackers access the decoy pool instead of real data, the system flashes a distinctive 'flamingo pink' alert, giving security teams instant attribution and early breach detection.
The Wow Moment
A security analyst watches a hacker's terminal in real-time as they exfiltrate what they believe is the customer database—only for the attacker's own screen to suddenly flash pink and reveal they've been downloading synthetic honeypot data while the real assets were protected all along.

You're doing pushups in a park on a hot day. Your phone buzzes with a scorpion alert: 'Heat danger approaching in 12 minutes - move to the green gazebo 200ft north now.' You follow the shadow-path on your screen, arrive at the shaded gazebo just as you start feeling faint, and the app says 'You're safe - your vitals are stabilizing. Wait 8 minutes.' It literally just saved you from heat stroke.
