- When deploying deception technology to detect lateral movement
| Concept | Description |
|---|---|
| OpenCanary | Lightweight Python honeypot with modular service emulation |
| Cowrie | Medium-interaction SSH/Telnet honeypot capturing commands |
| T-Pot | Multi-honeypot platform with ELK stack visualization |
| Canary Token | Tripwire credential or file that alerts when accessed |
| Low-Interaction | Emulates services at protocol level without full OS |
| High-Interaction | Full OS honeypot capturing complete attacker sessions |
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
| OpenCanary | Modular honeypot daemon with service emulation |
| Cowrie | SSH/Telnet honeypot with session recording |
| T-Pot | All-in-one multi-honeypot platform |
| Dionaea | Malware-capturing honeypot for exploit detection |
| Splunk/Elastic | SIEM for honeypot alert aggregation |
