Building traps, tools and tactics for real-world security.
Synth1ca is a small cybersec & engineering studio focused on honeypots, deception, and practical security solutions for SMB and tech teams.
What Synth1ca builds.
Tools and platforms designed for real-world security challenges.
Our approach.
Offensive mindset, defensive outcomes.
Deception and traps instead of just walls.
Privacy-first by design – minimal data, maximal signal.
Small, focused, shipping fast.
Synth1ca is a small team that combines development, infrastructure, and offensive security thinking. We build tools we'd actually use in our own infrastructure – practical, privacy-respecting, and designed to give you real signal about who's probing your systems.
Think less enterprise compliance, more tactical advantage.
Who we build for.
Small SaaS teams
Startups and small product teams who deploy to the cloud.
MSP & security-conscious hosting
Managed service providers who need visibility across infrastructure.
Engineers who want signal
Developers who want to understand who's knocking on their doors.
If you deploy things to the internet and care about who's knocking, you're in our target group.
Synth1ca in one sentence.
"Synth1ca is an indie, offensive-minded security studio. We ship honeypots, tools and workflows that we'd actually use in our own infrastructure."
