DentiGrid review
A hybrid honeypot platform with layered decoys, telemetry, and security-operations integrations.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
DentiGrid is a paid SIEM-native honeypot and active-deception platform for managed security service providers and enterprise SOC teams. It distributes synthetic SSH keys, canary tokens, decoy database tables, AWS credentials, and cloud resource lures across endpoints, cloud environments, edge perimeters, and internal networks. The platform captures attacker interactions, sends authenticated telemetry to a central console, and supports self-hosted decoys in private cloud or on-premises subnets. Its multi-layer scope makes it suited to teams that need more than a single network honeypot.
Its ecosystem fit is a central strength. DentiGrid supports Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, Elastic SIEM, and IBM QRadar, while telemetry ingestion uses HMAC-SHA256 authentication. Security teams can export External Dynamic Lists for enforcement through Palo Alto, Fortinet, and Cisco firewalls. Additional integrations include AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, Cloudflare, and Datadog. Real-time attacker IP and command-sequence telemetry provides operational context, while distributed sensor nodes allow deception assets to be placed across different environments.
The plan structure maps capability to operating scale. Core includes a basic deception engine, basic analytics, and standard email support. Growth adds automated deception workflows, firewall dynamic blocklists, SIEM integrations, advanced analytics, and priority 24/7 SOC support. Unlimited adds a multi-tenant MSSP portal, dedicated architect support, advanced real-time analytics, and a guaranteed operational SLA. DentiGrid is a strong fit for security teams and MSSPs needing hybrid deployment and layered lures; organizations seeking open-source software or only a minimal standalone honeypot may prefer a narrower alternative.
