Description: After decades in research obscurity, honeypots became widely visible in the late 1990s largely through the work of early Honeynet Project members. Now in 2012, honeypots have evolved into a diverse array of standard research tools. This talk will provide a wide overview of the honeypot world, giving insights into their usage, the types of data they provide, and how they can evolve into even more powerful tools for network defenders.
Speaker Bio:
Dr. Jose Nazario is the senior manager of security research at Arbor Networks.
