Abstract

Honeyfarm is a model to deploy honeypots for global network attack monitoring, correlation and forensic analysis. Data control is a fundamental problem in the honeyfarm to protect the Internet from being attacked by compromised honeypots in the honeyfarm, while providing a controlled environment for worm behaviour study. However, this problem is not well addressed in a limited number of existing implementations. This paper presents a honeyfarm system and focuses on the design of a data control mechanism based on Intrusion detection and Data redirection (DOID). Comprehensive experiments including attack event tracing, worm behaviour study and forensic analysis display that DOID is a good tool for attack monitoring and forensic analysis.
