Decoy Persona
Definition
Establishing a fake online identity to misdirect, deceive, and or interact with adversaries.
How it works
A false online identity is created for the purposes of interacting with adversaries in a direct or indirect manner. This includes the associated email addresses, social media accounts, and other online communication profiles.
Considerations
•Include phone numbers and online social profiles as well as automatically or manually responding to contact made to the persona to improve realism.
•Continuous updating and managing the decoy personas and online activity streams to ensure personas do not become stale and outdated.
