MokN Baits Phish-Back Platform

MokN is a French cybersecurity company, registered as MokN SAS with its head office in Paris, focused on stolen-credential protection. It raised a USD 15 million Series A in May 2026 led by GV, with DataDog participating, to expand its Phish-Back approach in the UK and the US.

Its flagship product, Baits, deploys decoy login pages such as fake VPN or webmail portals with valid certificates that mimic a customer's real assets. When attackers test stolen credentials on a Bait, MokN filters for valid credentials, alerts the security team and provides tailored threat intelligence, so credentials can be reset before real damage occurs.

• Baits: decoy login pages with valid certificates that mimic real assets.
• Credential filtering: alerts only when valid stolen credentials hit a Bait.
• Tailored threat intelligence: monitors attacker activity tied to the customer's users, systems and domains.
• Fast setup: first Bait can be live in about 3 minutes, per the vendor.
• Lantern: tool to detect and fix exposures.
• Phish-Back approach: turns attacker credential testing into a detection signal.

Banks and telecom operators in Vietnam can place bait VPN or webmail portals to catch attackers using leaked employee credentials. SOC teams can use the alerts to force resets before access is abused.

Detects when stolen credentials are being used against the organization before real systems are hit.

Alerts only on valid stolen credentials, which limits noise.

Vendor states a first Bait can be live in about 3 minutes with no integration delays.

Provides tailored threat intelligence on attacker activity tied to the customer.

Stolen credentials from infostealers and phishing drive many breaches, and deception-based detection is gaining attention. Vietnamese enterprises with exposed VPN and webmail portals face credential-stuffing attempts.

Series A of USD 15 million announced 29 May 2026, led by GV with DataDog, Moonfire and OVNI Capital. CEO and co-founder Gautier Bugeon. Registered head office at 149 Avenue du Maine, 75014 Paris.
