Deploy the FortiDeceptor Token Package

Use a FortiDeceptor Token Package to add breadcrumbs on real endpoints and lure an attacker to a Decoy VM. Tokens are normally distributed within real endpoints and other IT assets on the network to maximize the deception surface.

To download a FortiDeceptor Token Package:
  1. Go to Deception > Decoy & Lure Status.
  2. Select the Decoy VM by clicking its checkbox.
  3. To download the FortiDeceptor Token Package, click Download Package.

    You can only download packages with valid IP addresses. A package must have a status of Initialized, Stopped, Running, or Failed.

To deploy or uninstall a FortiDeceptor Token Package on an existing endpoint:
  1. Copy the downloaded FortiDeceptor Token Package to an endpoint such as a Windows or Linux endpoint.
  2. Unzip the FortiDeceptor Token Package.
  3. In the folder for the OS, such as windows or ubuntu, follow the instructions in README.txt to install or uninstall the Token Package.
    • For Windows, open the windows folder, right-click windows_token.exe and select Run as administrator.
    • For Ubuntu, open Terminal and run python ./ubuntu_token.py.

When the FortiDeceptor Token Package is installed on a real Windows or Ubuntu endpoint, it increases the deception surface and lures the attacker to a Decoy VM.
