Topic #: 7
[All 312-38 Questions]

Ryan works as a network security engineer at an organization the recently suffered an attack. As a countermeasure, Ryan would like to obtain more information about the attacker and chooses to deploy a honeypot into the organizations production environment called Kojoney. Using this honeypot, he would like to emulate the network vulnerability that was attacked previously. Which type of honeypot is he trying to implement?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

A low-interaction honeypot, like Kojoney, is designed to emulate specific network vulnerabilities and gather information about attackers without providing a full-fledged operating environment. These honeypots are typically easier to deploy and maintain compared to high-interaction honeypots. They simulate certain services and responses to attract attackers, allowing the network security team to gather data on attack patterns, tools, and methodologies used by the attackers. This information is crucial for understanding the attack and improving defenses.

High-interaction honeypots: Provide a complete environment that can fully engage with attackers, offering more detailed insights but also posing higher risks.

Pure honeypots: Essentially full-scale, unmodified systems that an attacker interacts with.

Research honeypots: Used primarily for gathering information for research purposes, often involving high-interaction setups.

I think Ryan should go for a research honeypot to gather more information about the attacker.

I bet the attacker is gonna be so confused when they realize they've been caught in a honeypot. Serves them right!

Haha, Kojoney? That's a pretty funny name for a honeypot. But you're right, it's gotta be a low-interaction one. Safety first!

Low-interaction honeypots are the way to go when you're just trying to gather information about the attacker. No need to risk compromising the entire network.

Definitely a low-interaction honeypot. High-interaction ones are way too risky to deploy in a production environment.

I think Kojoney is a low-interaction honeypot, as it emulates a specific network vulnerability rather than allowing full interaction with the attacker.
