We present Shadow Honeypots, a novel hybrid architecture that combines the best features of honeypots and anomaly detection. At a high level, we use a variety of anomaly detectors to monitor all traffic to a protected network or service. Traffic that is considered anomalous is processed by a “shadow honeypot” to determine the accuracy of the anomaly prediction. The shadow is an instance of the ...

Honeypots and honeynets are unconventional security tools to study techniques, methods, tools, and goals of attackers. Therefore, data analysis is an important part of honeypots and honeynets. In paper we focus on analysis of data collected from different honeypots and honeynets. We discuss framework to analyse honeypots’ and honeynets’ data. Also, we outline a secure way to transfer collected ...

Title of Document: Advanced Honeypot Architecture for Network Threats Quantification Robin Berthier, Ph.D., 2009 Directed By: Associate Professor Michel Cukier, Reliability Engineering Program Today's world is increasingly relying on computer networks. The increase in the use of network resources is followed by a rising volume of security problems. New threats and vulnerabilities are discovered...

Analytical Models for the Interaction Between Botmasters and Honeypots

Communication technologies have a significant influence on the business industry. Exchanging information, storing and retrieving data, and cutting communication costs are prime reasons for relying heavily on these technologies. However, these technologies are significantly affected by hacking. Due to neglecting the behaviour of hackers during the initial design stage of common security solution...

Mobile devices suffer daily threats of various kinds, in particular in a digital form, where users without consent receives and installs malware on their mobile devices via wireless networks, getting their information vulnerable to unauthorized persons. Aiming to learn more targeted attacks on mobile devices, this paper presents a mechanism that emulates services and protocols within a mobile d...
