Use a Honeypot, Go to Prison?
| Title: | Use a Honeypot, Go to Prison? (ID: CSD2810) | | Author(s): | Kevin Poulsen, | | Topics: | Hacking, Intrusion Detection and Prevention, Network Security and Applications | | Origin: | Community Contributions (2003) | | Type: | Articles, Papers, and Reports | | Abstract: | A honeypot is a type of hacker flypaper: a system that sits on an organization's network for no other purpose than to be hacked, in theory diverting attackers away from genuinely valuable targets and putting them in an closely monitored environment where every keystroke can be analyzed. But that monitoring is what federal criminal law calls "interception of communications". | | View this resource: | |
