mwcollect is an easy solution to collect
worms and other autonomous spreading malware in a non-native
environment like Linux. The first versions were used to
collect binaries for botnet monitoring and bots are still
what we mostly see. Some people consider it a next
generation honeypot, however that comparison often leads to
the misunderstanding that computers running mwcollect can
actually be infected with the malware -- that is not
the case!

Known as a
"honey pot" for its ability to attract and trap hackers, Back Officer
Friendly (BOF) is a popular free download available exclusively from NFR
Security, Inc. Back Officer Friendly was originally created to
detect when anyone attempts a Back Orifice scan against your computer. It
has since evolved to detect attempted connections to other services, such
Telnet, FTP, SMTP, POP3 and IMAP2. When BOF receives a connection to one
of these services, it will fake replies to the hopeful hacker, wasting the
attacker's time, and giving you time to stop them from other mischief.

The Bait and Switch Honeypot is a
multifaceted attempt to take honeypots out of the shadows of the network
security model and to make them an active participant in system defense.
To do this, we are creating a system that reacts to hostile intrusion
attempts by redirecting all hostile traffic to a honeypot that is
partially mirroring your production system. Once switched, the would-be
hacker is unknowingly attacking your honeypot instead of the real data and
your clients and/or users still safely accessing the real system. Life
goes on, your data is safe, and you are learning about the bad guy as an
added benefit. The system is based on snort, linux's iproute2, netfilter,
and custom code for now. We plan on adding additional support in the
future if possible.

An
open proxy is a server that forwards Internet connections from
anywhere to anywhere, no questions asked. If you want to do something bad,
and don't want to get caught, all you have to do is find an open proxy and
tell it to do it. Nobody will know who did it, except the open proxy, and
even there the records are usually short-lived or nonexistent.
An open proxy honeypot (proxypot) is a server that
pretends to be an open proxy, taking requests from bad people to do bad
things, and responding with a simulation instead of doing the evil deed.
The goal is to fool the bad people into thinking they've done their bad
thing and got away with it, while actually they didn't do it, and they got
caught anyway! |

DTK, the
deception is intended to make it appear to attackers as if the system
running DTK has a large number of widely known vulnerabilities. DTK's
deception is programmable, but it is typically limited to producing output
in response to attacker input in such a way as to simulate the behavior of
a system which is vulnerable to the attackers method.
DTK simply listens for inputs and provides responses that seem normal
(i.e., full of bugs). In the process, it logs what is being done, provides
sensible (if not quite perfect) answers, and lulls the attacker into a
false sense of (your) insecurity |

Honeyd is a
small daemon that creates virtual hosts on a network. The hosts can be
configured to run arbitrary services, and their personality can be adapted
so that they appear to be running certain operating systems. Honeyd
enables a single host to claim multiple addresses - I have tested up to
65536 - on a LAN for network simulation. Honeyd improves cyber security by
providing mechanisms for threat detection and assessment. It also deters
adversaries by hiding real systems in the middle of virtual systems.

Honeycomb is good at spotting worms. For example, Honeycomb
creates detailed signatures for Slammer and Code Red (far more detailed
than the typical web server request line) on a typical end-user DSL
connection. But the system has lots of other potential uses -- it can be
applied to any kind of traffic to actively search for signatures when
those are currently not available. Examples are all those "Does anyone
have a signature for program X"-type of questions on IDS mailing lists --
just run this traffic through Honeycomb and see what you get.
Spam detection is another potential application that comes to mind.
The system
is an extension of the open-source honeypot honeyd and inspects traffic
inside the honeypot; currently it examines protocol headers as well as
payload data. Integrating Honeycomb with honeyd has several
advantages over a bump-in-the-wire approach: |

is simulating will return information on the simulated services as if
they were real network services running on actual hosts. Since there are
no actual users of this virtual network of simulated hosts, all traffic
to it is considered to be suspicious. All traffic to the NetFacade
Intrusion Detection service on the virtual network is logged and brought

The Network
Honeypot impersonates services, sending fake information in response to
scans to try and entice attackers to access the non-existent services. An
attack is identified when the attacker returns and tries to access the
impersonated resources. There is no reason for legitimate traffic to
access these resources because they don't exist, so any attempt to connect
constitutes an attack. This is a good way to stop the "noise' created by
"script kiddies" and unsophisticated attackers. |

SPECTER is a smart honeypot or deception system. It

hackers away from the production machines. SPECTER offers common Internet
services such as SMTP, FTP, POP3, HTTP and TELNET which appear perfectly
normal to the attackers but in fact are traps for them to mess around and
leave traces without even knowing that they are connected to a decoy
system, which does none of the things it appears to do, but instead logs
everything and notifies the appropriate people. Furthermore, SPECTER
automatically investigates the
attackers while they are still trying to break in. SPECTER provides
massive amounts of decoy content and it generates decoy programs that will
leave hidden marks on the attacker's computer. Automated weekly online
updates of the honeypot's content and vulnerability databases allow the
honeypot to change constantly without user interaction.
