Stream is the first vendor to help SecOps teams proactively mitigate threats as part of real-time Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) by strategically deploying traps in cloud environments to lure and quarantine attackers before loss can occur.
Stream.Security, a leader in real-time Cloud Detection and Response solutions, has unveiled Stream Traps—the industry’s first deception-based cloud security solution that dynamically adapts to a customer’s cloud environment. This innovative technology is designed to trap, track, and neutralize adversaries in real time.
Redefining Cloud Detection and Response
Stream Traps revolutionizes cloud security by deploying decoy assets that detect, mislead, and delay attackers, offering unmatched visibility and control. Unlike conventional deception tools that are cumbersome to deploy and lack contextual intelligence, Stream Traps leverages Stream.Security’s proprietary CloudTwin™ model. This cutting-edge technology provides real-time awareness of cloud infrastructure, ensuring traps are placed strategically where attackers are most likely to strike.
By integrating deception tactics directly into its comprehensive detection and response framework, Stream.Security enhances threat detection accuracy. Its built-in quarantine capabilities also minimize potential damage and significantly reduce Mean Time to Respond (MTTR).
“Security operations teams face constant pressure to differentiate real threats from false positives. Stream Traps addresses this challenge by providing unmistakable evidence of attacker behavior, improving both detection accuracy and response speed,” said Stav Sitnikov, CPO of Stream.Security.
Empowering Security Teams with Advanced Capabilities
Stream Traps enables security operations teams (SecOps) to enhance threat detection and response in cloud environments through:
- Delaying and Distracting Attackers: By deploying realistic decoy assets that mimic high-value cloud resources, Stream Traps diverts attacker focus while capturing vital intelligence. These monitored assets operate within sandboxed environments controlled by Stream.Security, providing security teams with critical time to identify and neutralize threats.
- Delivering High-Fidelity Threat Signals: Any engagement with a monitored asset generates an immediate, actionable alert. Powered by CloudTwin™ technology, these alerts provide security teams with precise intelligence on real threats, eliminating false positives and accelerating response times.

The Industry’s First Proactive Deception-Based Cloud Security Platform
With the launch of Stream Traps, Stream.Security becomes the first cloud detection and response platform to proactively deceive attackers and mitigate threats using the following key innovations:
- Intelligent Trap Placement: Unlike traditional alerting systems that often produce excessive noise, Stream Traps automatically deploys monitored assets in high-risk areas of an organization’s cloud infrastructure, ensuring maximum effectiveness.
- AI-Powered Asset Naming and Tagging: Leveraging a Large Language Model (LLM), Stream Traps generates realistic asset names, categories, and tags that seamlessly integrate with an organization’s existing cloud structure, increasing attacker engagement.
- Seamless Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) Deployment: Security teams can quickly implement Stream Traps using pre-configured templates, streamlining deployment and reducing friction between SecOps and DevOps teams.
- Sandboxed Threat Isolation: Unlike traditional honeypots, Stream Traps directs attackers into a controlled environment, effectively preventing lateral movement and reducing the overall security risk.
Strengthening Security with Proactive Threat Mitigation
Stream Traps is specifically designed to:
- Eliminate Alert Fatigue: Security teams can confidently prioritize Stream Trap alerts, as legitimate users have no reason to interact with these monitored assets.
- Reduce Attacker Dwell Time: By engaging attackers early in their reconnaissance phase, organizations gain a crucial advantage in mitigating threats before they escalate.
With Stream Traps, Stream.Security is setting a new standard for proactive cloud threat detection and response, empowering organizations to stay ahead of attackers in an ever-evolving threat landscape.
