“Honeynets: High Value Security Data”
Anton A. Chuvakin · Network Security · 2003
This article will cover some of the discoveries that can be made using honeypot systems, exposed to the Internet. The material is based on the author’s experience running such a decoy network of UNIX machines for over a year. We will go through several examples of captured hacker tools and cover common attack examples. The subject of building a honeypot will be left outside the scope of the paper. As a staring point, the author’s presentation “Implementing the Honeypot” ( http://www.tracking-hackers.com/conf/slides/implementing.pdf ) from ITRA Honeypots Conference (Las Vegas, NV, November 2002) is recommended.
