Centralized, Encrypted Persona Data

A Sockpuppet’s identity is part of who that persona is — it should never exist within your analyst’s local or organizational environment. Saving PII, credentials, or backstory data on real systems breaks attribution boundaries, increases exposure, and creates dangerous entry points if breached. Once that link exists, it can compromise your operators, sources, and entire investigation.

Alias keeps each identity’s private information exactly where it belongs — inside its own isolated environment, encrypted, segmented, and fully usable by you without the need to store it anywhere else.

Store General Identity Information Securely

Each Sockpuppet includes a dedicated Identity Workspace — a structured area within the platform to store:

  • Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
  • Backstory and biography notes
  • Profile photos and supporting images
  • Associated email addresses, phone numbers, and metadata
  • Operational notes, reminders, and timelines

Nothing ever leaves the environment or touches your local system. This keeps attribution lines clean, ensures operational separation, and prevents accidental exposure through shared drives, password managers, or synced folders.

For added protection, customers can encrypt identity data using their own keys, keeping full control over access while ensuring the information remains as private as the persona itself.

Store Platform Credentials & Access Metadata

Beyond general PII, every Sockpuppet identity can store complete credential details for the platforms it uses — including:

  • Username and password
  • Security questions and recovery answers
  • Recovery phone, email, or secondary account details
  • Two-factor authentication method and status
  • Account creation date, verification status, and notes
  • Login health (last verified, locked, or expired)

Users can also create custom platform profiles within the system, allowing investigators to track account credentials for any site, regardless of whether it’s mainstream social media, dark web forums, or proprietary systems.

All data is encrypted in our database and only visible by using a user entered decryption key.

When required, they can be securely exported or shared with team members through controlled access and RBAC permissions — without revealing plaintext credentials or losing chain-of-custody logging.

Protecting the Link Between Analyst and Persona

Identity management in Alias ensures that sensitive persona data — from birthdates to recovery emails — never leaves the protected environment. By keeping each Sockpuppet’s information contained, encrypted, and segmented, organizations can safely scale investigations without risking attribution, compromise, or cross-contamination.
