A new view of honey pots.
A honey pot has traditionally been a vulnerable system you place in your dmz (which has fake data on it)for hackers to attack so you can gain info on the attacker while the attacker thinks they have penetrated an important system.
Why not integrate a fake network in your dmz, add a few virtual honeypot systems with virwual firewalls.
Write a few extra input form pages in your production web apps which your regular users canot navigate to. These fake pages will be found by hackers doing eb scans and the form inputs can be pointed to a fake database on a fake server.
Giving the hackers all this virtual booty will slow them down allow you to weed out the more dangerous smart hackers, monitor them and gather info for a legal case if necessary.
Stay tuned for more.
