Purpose
To introduce you to honeypots, what they are, how they work, their value.
Problem
Variety of misconceptions about honeypots, everyone has their own definition. This confusion has caused lack of understanding, and adoption.
Honeypot Timeline
1990/1991 The Cuckoos Egg and Evening with Berferd 1997 - Deception Toolkit 1998 - CyberCop Sting 1998 - NetFacade (and Snort) 1998 - BackOfficer Friendly 1999 - Formation of the Honeynet Project 2001 - Worms captured 2002 - dtspcd exploit capture
Definition
Any security resource whos value lies in being probed, attacked, or compromised
Types
Production (Law Enforcment) Research (Counter-Intelligence)
Martys idea
Value
What is the value of honeypots? One of the greatest areas of confusion concerning honeypot technologies.
Advantages
Based on how honeypots conceptually work, they have several advantages.
Reduce False Positives and False Negatives Data Value Resources Simplicity
Disadvantages
Based on the concept of honeypots, they also have disadvantages:
Narrow Field of View Fingerprinting Risk
Production
Prevention Detection Response
Prevention
Keeping the burglar out of your house. Honeypots, in general are not effective prevention mechanisms. Deception, Deterence, Decoys, are phsychological weapons. They do NOT work against automated attacks:
worms auto-rooters mass-rooters
Detection
Detecting the burglar when he breaks in. Honeypots excel at this capability, due to their advantages.
Response
Honeypots can be used to help respond to an incident.
Can easily be pulled offline (unlike production systems. Little to no data pollution.

Tactics
J4ck: why don't you start charging for packet attacks? J4ck: "give me x amount and I'll take bla bla offline for this amount of time" J1LL: it was illegal last I checked. J4ck: heh, then everything you do is illegal. Why not make money off of it? J4ck: I know plenty of people that'd pay exorbatent amounts for packeting.
Level of Interaction
Level of Interaction determines amount of functionality a honeypot provides. The greater the interaction, the more you can learn. The greater the interaction, the more complexity and risk.
Risk
Chance that an attacker can use your honeypot to harm, attack, or infiltrate other systems or organizations.
Low Interaction
Provide Emulated Services No operating system for attacker to access. Information limited to transactional information and attackers activities with emulated services.
High Interaction
Provide Actual Operating Systems Learn extensive amounts of information. Extensive risk.
