What are the different types off honeypots?
In general, there are two different types, low-interaction and high-interaction. Level of interaction measures how much activity, or interaction, an attacker can have with a honeypot. Low interaction honeypots limit the level of interaction by emulating services. The interaction an attacker has with the honeypot is limited by how advance the emulation of the service is. An example of a low interaction honeypot is Honeyd. In contrast, high interaction honeypots do not emulate services, instead they provide real applications for attackers to interact with. An example of a high interaction honeypot is Honeynets. Neither is better then the other. Low interaction is simpler to deploy and has less risk (as the attacker can do less), but you can not learn as much. With a high level of interaction you can learn a great deal, as the attacker has a real operating system and applications to interact with. However, this comes at a cost, as the more interaction you provide, the more complex and gre
