A method, computer program product, and system for generating a unique (deceptive) view of a network, the method includes a processor generating, for a host on a computing network, a virtual network topology view, where the virtual network topology view of the network host differs from a physical network topology of the computing network, wherein the network node perceives the computing network as comprising a network topology of the virtual network topology view. The generating includes: the processor modifying naming and addressing services of network components communicatively coupled to the network host and transforming network flows between the network resources viewable by the network host in the virtual network topology view, to be consistent with the virtual network topology view.
