Computer and Network SecurityNew York, United States51-200 Employees

Illusive is a computer and network security company focused on identifying and remediating privileged identity risks that can be exploited in ransomware and other cyberattacks. Its approach centers on disrupting attacker movement by creating a hostile environment that deprives intruders of viable paths to critical assets, and by replacing vulnerable connections and credentials with deceptive ones to reveal attacker presence. The company emphasizes an agentless model that provides deterministic proof of in-progress attacks and actionable forensics to support quick responses, complementing other defensive technologies. 

Based in New York, Illusive serves organizations seeking to reduce cyber risk by shrinking the attack surface and improving visibility into unprotected identities across networks. The firm operates within the cybersecurity industry, positioning itself as a provider of identity risk management and active defense solutions intended to prevent lateral movement and detect threats such as advanced persistent threats and targeted ransomware. A notable development is its acquisition by Proofpoint, signaling strategic alignment within the broader security landscape.
