    Honeypots are computer systems that are intended to be attacked by hackers in order to study their methods. There are two main types of honeypots - production honeypots, which are used to gather information about attacks within an organization's network, and research honeypots, which are used to study hacking techniques more broadly. Honeypots can also be classified based on their level of involvement - low-involvement honeypots have limited interaction with attackers, while high-involvement honeypots allow more extensive attacker activity in order to gain deeper insight into attack methods.

    Honeypots

    Presented by:Sonika Mathur MCA Vth sem

    INTRODUCTION
    Honeypots are an exciting new technology with enormous potential for the security community. The concepts were first introduced by several icons in computer security, specifically Cliff Stoll in the book The Cuckoo's Egg", and Bill Cheswick's paper " An Evening with Berferd." Since then, honeypots have continued to evolve, developing into the powerful security tools they are today. A honeypot is primarily an instrument for information gathering and learning about the attacks and black hat community itself.

    DEFINITION
    A honeypot is an information system resource whose value lies in unauthorized or illicit use of that resource.

    TYPES OF HONEYPOT
    Honeypots can be classified based on their deployment and based on their level of involvement. Based on the deployment, honeypots may be classified as:-

    Production Honeypot Research Honeypot

    Based on the deployment, honeypots may be classified as:-

    Low-Involvement Honeypot
    High-Involvement Honeypot
    Involvement defines the level of activity a honeypot allows an attacker.
