Aspectising honeytokens to contain the insider threat
Keshnee Padayachee · IET Information Security · 2014
The aim of this study is to provide a generic implementation strategy for honeytokens deployed within a database management system that leverages the aspect‐oriented paradigm to contain the insider threat. This approach is tested by developing a proof‐of‐concept prototype in an aspect‐oriented language, namely AspectJ. This study also reflects on design and implementation challenges involved in the deployment of honeytokens to contain the insider threat. Consequently, aspect‐orientation is proposed as a means to resolve some of these challenges.
