Honeypots: Simple, Cost-Effective Detection

This is the fourth article in an ongoing series examining honeypots.
In previous installments, we have covered two different honeypot
solutions: Honeyd and Specter. Both honeypots are low-interaction
production solutions; their purpose is to help protect organizations,
as opposed to research honeypots, which are used to gather
information. Production honeypots work by emulating a variety of
services and operating systems. Honeyd, an OpenSource solution, is
considered more powerful and flexible than Specter, but it is also
more difficult to use. Specter, a commercially supported solution, is
easier to use as it runs on Windows. In this paper we take a step back
for a moment and discuss the value of honeypot technologies in
general. Why would you want to deploy production honeypots in your
organization? How can a honeypot help security professionals to do
their job more effectively?
