Decoy Systems for Computer Crimes: Honeypots

In the world of computer crime, stolen identity, and network destruction, hackers seem to be ours that benefit from defense. We use many tools to combat attacks, such as antivirus applications, firewalls, encryption. These are some of the most famous defense strategies, but there are strategies that actually promote attacks. Also called honeypot. If you remember Winnie which is tempting Pooh's honey, the main idea behind the honeypot should be easy to understand.

A honeypot (usually a resource accessible to the bait network) can be placed on the network as a monitoring and early warning tool. This is because honeypots are usually not accessed for legitimate purposes. The techniques used by attackers attempting to destroy these food resources are studied during and after the attack to pay close attention to new development techniques. This analysis can be used to further enhance the security of the actual network of honeypot protection. Honey pot also attracts attacker's attention from legitimate server. Honeypots encourage attackers to distract from data on real servers as they spend time and effort on bait servers. Like the honeypot, the honeynet is a network with intentional loopholes. It is also aimed to investigate attackers' methods and to build attacks so that this information can be used to improve network security. Honeynet usually contains one or more honeypots

As described in Wikipedia, the honeypot is a computer security mechanism used to detect, transfer, or in any way prevent attempts to use the information system without permission. Normally, a honeypot looks like a legitimate part of a site but actually consists of data that is isolated and monitored, it seems to contain resources for information and the value of the attacker, and then It will be blocked. They are often used as baits of criminals and are secretly monitored by legal authorities on various platforms such as TOR.
