Application of Honeypot in Network Security for Detecting Cyber Attacks on IT Infrastructure
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The high security risks that are susceptible to hacking and exploitation by malicious actors to steal data or information often arise due to a lack of awareness regarding the critical importance of implementing deceptive network security using honeypots. Negligence can create vulnerabilities that are easily exploited, allowing attackers to initiate breaches. A notable network security approach involves using Honeypots, a method that creates a decoy server to mimic an authentic one. Honeypots are deliberately engineered to attract the attention of cyber attackers and facilitate their access to the trap server, thereby enabling the monitoring and analysis of their activities without compromising the integrity of the primary server. To achieve optimal network security, comprehensive testing of Honeypots is essential. This testing process serves as a fundamental metric in evaluating the efficacy and performance of Honeypot systems in mitigating cyber threats.
