Embodiment Construction

[0018] Security systems such as firewalls and anti-virus software provide significant protection in a typical network environment. In this environment, firewalls provide defense against unauthorized access to private networks, and anti-virus software protects individual computer systems from viruses, Trojans, Root program viruses and other threats provide defenses. Although such a security system provides defenses against many types of computer attacks, even if the event log is carefully checked, the information provided about how the attack is loaded is very limited.

[0019] For reasons such as this, a bait system called a honeypot is sometimes used to collect information about the attacker or intruder. Honeypots can be set up inside or outside the private network, such as by using custom software that is configured to look the same as the vulnerable system, or by using such as Windows TM Standard operating systems and software for servers, database servers, or other such sys...

Abstract

A virtual honeypot is configured within a security appliance by configuring one or more network addresses associated with the virtual honeypot. The security appliance receives network traffic destined for the virtual honeypot sent to the one or more network addresses associated with the virtual honeypot, and forwards the traffic to a remote honeypot such that the remote honeypot appears to be connected to a network local to the security appliance.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to computer network security, and more specifically to computer network honeypots. Background technique [0002] A computer is a valuable tool in that a large part of its capabilities are used to communicate with other computer systems and exchange information through computer networks. A network usually includes an interconnected group of computers linked by wires, optical fibers, radio, or other data transmission means to provide computers with the ability to transmit information between computers. The Internet is probably the most well-known computer network, and enables millions of people to access millions of other computers, such as by viewing web pages, sending emails, or performing other computer-to-computer communications. [0003] Because the size of the Internet is very large and the interests of Internet users are very diverse, it is not uncommon for malicious users or pranksters to try to communicate with ...
