Abstract:
Techniques for providing a smart proxy for a large scale high-interaction honeypot farm are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system/method/computer program product for providing a smart proxy for a large scale high-interaction honeypot farm includes receiving tunneled traffic at a smart proxy from a sensor for a honeypot farm that is executed in a honeypot cloud, wherein the tunneled traffic is forwarded attack traffic, and wherein the honeypot farm includes a plurality of container images of distinct types of vulnerable services; selecting a matching type of vulnerable service from the plurality of container images of distinct types of vulnerable services based on a profile of the attack traffic; and forwarding the tunneled traffic to an instance of the matching type of vulnerable service.
