URL Honeytoken Enterprise ​

A URL honeytoken gives you a unique link. When someone opens it, Trapster records the interaction and raises an incident.

Placement examples ​

A honeytoken works best when it looks valuable but sits somewhere only an intruder would reach.

Copy the token URL and embed it in:

  • A saved email draft in a shared or service account mailbox, titled something like "AWS backup credentials" or "VPN access instructions"
  • A comment or internal note inside a ticketing system (Jira, Linear) or wiki (Notion, Confluence) in a space that is archived or restricted
  • A plaintext passwords.txt or credentials.txt file left in a network share, home directory, or backup folder

When someone clicks the link, you receive an incident.
