A Design of Linkage Security Defense System Based on Honeypot

Abstract

Network security is a growing concern today for organizations. Our network faces many new threats and unknown attacks. The traditional defense system can not response to the 0-day attacks. This paper is to design a linkage security defense system based on honeypot technique. The honeypot is a security resource whose value lies in being probed, attacked or compromised. We collect information of attacker and other threats actively with honeypot centered in linkage security defense system. With the information collected, the linkage system will update security system policies and rules in time. Therefore, we are able to improve our network security by the linkage security defense system in real time. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014.
