Towards a third generation data capture architecture for honeynets
Edward Balas, Camilo H. Viecco · 2005
Honeynets have become an important tool for researchers and network operators. However, their effectiveness has been impeded by a lack of a standard unified honeynet data model which results from having multiple unrelated data sources, each with its own access method and format. In this paper we propose a new data collection architecture that addresses the need for both rapid comprehension and detailed analysis by providing two data access methods: a relational model based fast path, and a canonical slow path. We also present a set of tools based on this architecture.
