Blue Oil™
Why you.
What Blue Oil™ is
Blue Oil is the layer krupiq lays over your network. Like oil on water, it gives an intruder a surface that looks like the real thing and moves like it, while everything underneath stays untouched. Blue is the colour of the defender. The intruder spends their night on a network that exists only for them. You spend yours asleep.
The call comes at 3:40 in the morning. Screens you cannot read. Phones that will not stop. A number with too many zeros. Everyone asks what you did before. No one asks what the tools were called. Some spend that night negotiating. Others sleep through it, because the moment the first file was touched it was already over. By morning, there is nothing to explain.
- 01
Cat
Sees without being seen. Silent, patient, already in position.
Runs on your own machines and sends nothing of yours out. Real sessions are counted, never recorded.
- 02
Squid
Clouds the water and changes shape in an instant. Gone before the predator reacts.
The decoy shifts every five minutes, a little at a time, along a path drawn for your deployment alone. It never reacts to being probed, so probing teaches nothing.
- 03
Owl
Turns its head 270 degrees. Sees everything. Hunts in total darkness.
Every touch on the decoy is real. Nothing legitimate ever goes there, so there are no false alarms.
Safe for production
The decoy runs beside your production network, never in its path. Employees, applications and your own scanners notice nothing. Only the decoy changes.
State of affairs
The attacker is a machine. The defender is still a person.
What the numbers say, and what krupiq is built to change.
| Subject | The figures | Since you opened this page | Impact |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zero-day and breach discovery |
| Fixed: time does not change it | Attackers operate undetected for months while defenders stay blind to new exploits. |
| Time to action |
| Fixed: time does not change it | Testing and ticketing leave a two-month exposure window after a fix exists. |
| Global cyber damage and downtime |
| $0in cyber damage worldwide | Disruption costs up to fifty times the ransom, and most of the market is still unprotected. |
| Cyber and alert fatigue |
| 0alerts at one SOC | Overwhelmed teams miss about fifty real attacks a year, and exhausted staff fall for MFA push-bombing. |
| What krupiq is built to do |
| Measured in our own tests; the evidence is in the signed record | An intruder spends their time on a decoy, so discovery is the first touch rather than the hundredth day. |
The counters start at zero when the page opens and grow at the rates the sources give: $10.5 trillion a year in cyber damage, 2,992 alerts a day at one security operations centre. Nothing is random. A measured figure comes from Emersa Labs' own tests, with the evidence held in krupiq's signed record and shown on request; a target is what krupiq is built to do and has not yet been measured.
