Compare features, ratings, integrations, and community reviews side by side to find the best honeypots & deception fit for your security stack.
CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, company size fit, deployment model, here is our conclusion:
Mid-market and enterprise security teams that treat Active Directory as a detection problem, not just a hardening problem, should evaluate AD Tripwires. It deploys honeypot objects directly into AD to catch reconnaissance and lateral movement before it reaches production assets, and the integration with Horizon3.ai's NodeZero platform means you validate that your tripwires actually work against your real attack surface. Skip this if your team lacks the AD expertise to maintain decoy objects or if you're looking for a tool that also handles response automation; AD Tripwires is detection and alerting only.
Enterprise and mid-market security teams with both IT and OT networks should pick CounterCraft The Platform if you need attackers actively contained and interrogated before they touch production systems. The platform's 24-48 hour adversary isolation in digital deception environments generates forensic-grade threat intelligence automatically mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, which directly feeds your detection and response workflows; this matters more than passive honeypots for teams with dwell-time pressure. Skip this if your priority is preventing initial access or you lack the operational bandwidth to triage deception alerts; CounterCraft assumes attackers are already inside and your team can act on that assumption.
