Abstract
High-interaction honeypots providing virtually an unlimited set of OS services to attackers are necessary to capture the most sophisticated human-made attacks for further analysis. Unfortunately, this field is not covered by recent publications. The paper analyses existing approaches and available open source solutions that can be used to form high-interaction honeypots first. Then the most prospective approach is chosen and best applicable tools are composed. The setup is tested eventually and its usefulness is proven.
