SentinelOne Singularity Hologram
Lure the attacker into the open. Hologram fills your environment with convincing decoys and traps — and because no legitimate user touches a decoy, any interaction is a real attacker.
How it’s rated
Full scoreboard ↓Quick answer
Singularity Hologram is SentinelOne's deception technology — it lures attackers into the open by filling your environment with convincing decoys, traps and fake assets that look exactly like the real thing. The idea is elegant: legitimate users never touch a decoy, so any interaction with one is a near-certain sign of an attacker performing reconnaissance or lateral movement. It catches the intruder who has already bypassed prevention and is quietly moving through your network — the hardest attacker to detect — by giving them fake targets that trip an alarm and misdirect them into a controlled environment away from your real assets. Because it's on the Singularity platform, a deception trigger correlates with the endpoint and identity picture, and the alerts are extremely high-fidelity: an attacker fell for a decoy, so it's real. Hologram builds on SentinelOne's Attivo Networks acquisition, a recognised deception leader.

Understand deception technology before you buy it
Most product pages skip this. We start here — so you buy a capability, not a buzzword.
What is deception technology?
Filling your environment with convincing decoys and traps that lure attackers into revealing themselves — because a legitimate user never touches a decoy, so any interaction is a real attacker.
The highest-fidelity way to catch the intruder who’s already inside.
Waiting to detect vs actively deceiving — the honest table
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Detection alone | Deception (Hologram) |
|---|---|---|
| The target | Prevention at the edge | The lateral mover, inside |
| The signal | Noisy alerts | Touch a decoy = real |
| False positives | Alert fatigue | Near-zero by design |
| The attacker's recon | Succeeds silently | Trips a trap |
| Beyond detection | Just an alert | Misdirect + study them |
| The pedigree | Improvised | Attivo, a deception leader |
| The correlation | A siloed alert | Trap + origin, one incident |
| The response | Manual | Autonomous engine |
Deception is a powerful complement to detection — layered with endpoint, identity and SIEM on Singularity.
The five pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
Decoys & Traps
Convincing decoy systems, files, credentials and services that look exactly like real assets — the bait an attacker can't tell from the genuine article.
The Tripwire
Legitimate users never interact with a decoy, so any interaction is a near-certain attacker — the highest-fidelity alert in security.
Misdirection
Draws attackers into a controlled deception environment, away from your real crown jewels — wasting their time and revealing their tradecraft.
Attivo Heritage
Built on SentinelOne's acquisition of Attivo Networks, a recognised deception and identity-security leader — mature technology, not improvised.
Platform Correlation
A deception trigger correlates with the endpoint and identity behind it on the platform — the trap and the intruder's origin, one incident.
One agent on every machine, one console over all of them — modules attach without a second operational world.
Twelve capabilities. Deceive, detect, respond.
Hologram catches the hardest attacker to see — the lateral mover — by turning your environment into a minefield of high-fidelity traps.
Convincing Decoys
Decoy systems, files, services and credentials indistinguishable from real assets — the bait attackers can't spot.
Lures & Breadcrumbs
Lures and breadcrumbs planted on real endpoints that lead attackers toward the decoys — the path into the trap.
Decoy Credentials
Fake credentials that, when harvested and used, trip the alarm and misdirect the attacker.
Attacker Misdirection
Draws attackers into a controlled fake environment, away from real crown jewels — wasting their time.
High-Fidelity Tripwire
Any interaction with a decoy is a near-certain attacker — the highest-fidelity, lowest-false-positive alert in security.
Lateral-Movement Detection
Catches the intruder moving quietly through the network after bypassing prevention — the hardest attacker to see.
Reconnaissance Detection
Reveals attackers during reconnaissance — the moment they probe your environment looking for targets.
Tradecraft Intelligence
Study the attacker's tools and techniques safely while they chase decoys — their recon becomes your intelligence.
Platform Correlation
A deception trigger correlates with the endpoint and identity origin on Singularity — the trap and the intruder, one incident.
Autonomous Response
The Singularity autonomous engine responds once the attacker is caught in a trap — response, not just an alert.
Attivo-Grade Deception
Built on the acquired Attivo Networks — mature, proven deception technology, not improvised decoys.
Low Management Overhead
Managed, convincing deception without the labour of building and maintaining DIY honeypots.

Here’s what genuinely sets Singularity Hologram apart from the alternatives.
Catch the attacker who's already in
The hardest attacker to detect is the one who bypassed prevention and is quietly moving laterally, using valid credentials and living off the land. Deception catches exactly this: it fills the environment with decoys, and the moment the attacker touches one during reconnaissance, they reveal themselves. It's built for the intruder who's already past your other defences.
The highest-fidelity alert in security
The genius of deception: legitimate users and processes never interact with a decoy, so any interaction is a near-certain sign of malicious activity. That means near-zero false positives — the opposite of the alert-fatigue most detection generates. When a Hologram alert fires, it's real, and your team acts with confidence.
Waste the attacker's time, learn their tradecraft
Beyond catching them, deception misdirects — drawing attackers into a controlled fake environment away from your real assets, wasting their time and revealing their tools and techniques. You don't just detect the intruder; you study them safely while they chase decoys, turning their reconnaissance into your intelligence.
Built on Attivo's deception pedigree
Hologram builds on SentinelOne's acquisition of Attivo Networks, a recognised leader in deception and identity security. So this isn't SentinelOne improvising decoys — it's mature, proven deception technology folded into the Singularity platform and enriched with the correlation and autonomous engine.
The trap in the whole picture
On Singularity, a deception trigger correlates with the endpoint and identity behind it — so the trap and the intruder's origin are one incident, and the autonomous engine can respond. A standalone deception tool catches the attacker; Singularity catches them AND connects it to where they came from.
The honest scope
Deception is a powerful complement to detection, not a replacement — it excels at catching the lateral mover, but it works best layered with endpoint, identity and SIEM detection (all on Singularity). Some organisations run deception as a specialist capability; Singularity's edge is having it integrated on one autonomous platform. TechBag scopes where deception fits your defence.

Quick poll — what’s driving your evaluation?
Talk to an advisor“An attacker moving laterally touched a decoy credential during reconnaissance and tripped the alarm — before they reached anything real. Deception caught the intruder our other tools hadn't yet seen.”
“Near-zero false positives is the whole point — when a Hologram alert fires, it's real, because no legitimate user touches a decoy. Our team acts with total confidence.”
“We drew an attacker into a fake environment and watched their tradecraft safely while they chased decoys. Their recon became our intelligence — genuinely powerful.”
“The Attivo pedigree shows — the decoys are convincing and mature, not improvised. Attackers can't tell them from real assets, which is exactly the point.”
“On Singularity, the deception trigger correlated with the endpoint the attacker came from — the trap and their origin, one incident. Connected, not siloed.”
“It's a complement to detection, not a replacement — layered with our endpoint and identity detection it's excellent. Scope where deception fits your defence.”
“For catching the lateral mover specifically, nothing else we tried came close. High-fidelity, low-noise, and it buys time.”
“It's a module priced with the platform — if you're on Singularity, adding deception is a powerful, integrated layer. Model the mix.”

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Heritage & focus | Deception on Singularity | Deception specialists | Detection, no deception | Manual honeypots | The gap |
| Alert fidelity | Near-zero FPs | High | Variable | High but manual | N/A |
| Catches lateral movement | The specialty | Yes | Behaviourally | If touched | No |
| Platform correlation | Singularity-native | Standalone | Native (if same vendor) | None | N/A |
| Maturity / management | Attivo-mature, managed | Mature | N/A | High overhead | N/A |
| Best fit | Singularity customers wanting integrated deception | Deception-specialist buyers | Detection-first teams | DIY/research teams | Nobody, ideally |
Which lateral-movement defence fits you?
Honest fit signals — because the fastest way to lose your trust is to pretend one product wins every scenario.
Choose Singularity Hologram if…
- ✓You want to catch the lateral mover who bypassed prevention
- ✓Near-zero-false-positive, high-fidelity alerts appeal
- ✓Misdirecting and studying attackers has value for you
- ✓You're on Singularity and want integrated, correlated deception
Choose a standalone deception tool if…
- ✓You want a dedicated deception platform decoupled from EDR
Rely on detection-only if…
- ✓You're confident behavioural detection catches lateral movement (deception adds a layer)
Build honeypots if…
- ✓You have the team to build and maintain them (high overhead)
No deception if…
- ✓Never ideal — the lateral mover is the hardest attacker to catch
What does an undetected lateral mover cost you?
Drag the sliders (count endpoints; IT-hour cost as loaded incident rate). Estimates assume ~2 hours per endpoint per year of dwell-time risk and low-fidelity-alert triage without deception, with ~65% removed by high-fidelity decoy detection that catches the lateral mover early — the avoided-breach value from catching the intruder before the crown jewels is the larger, unpriced win.
