Honeypot / Honeynet

Honeypot (also known as honeynet) is a system developed to attract attackers. Honeypots are useful to find out how a cyber attack on a particular system might occur, without/before exposing a real system.

Organisations deploying honeypots and honeynets should ensure that they are deployed and managed according to regulation and best practice within the countries that they are running.
