Tianhua Liu, Xiushuang Yi, Shiwei Ma · 2011

Honey net technologies play an increasingly important role in network security. However, conventional honey net has some disadvantages like low hardware utilization, complexity configuration and difficultly management increasingly highlighted. Towards solving these problems that honey net currently facing, in this paper, we propose the necessity of using virtual technology to construct honey net. Through the studying on core functions of honey net, the paper analyzed and provided the workflows of core functions in virtual system. Based on that, we designed and implemented a virtual honey net proposal. The results show that the established virtual honey net works well and solves the shortcomings of conventional honey net in a certain extent.
