A software review site reports a modest mindshare metric for FortiDeceptor in the "Threat Deception Platforms" category based on user engagement; this should be treated as a directional interest indicator rather than audited market share.
| Starting Price | Quote-based; SKU/VLAN-based bundles (no public list) | Quote-based; marketed as standalone product | Historical third-party reporting indicated a relatively high enterprise starting price |
