DYNAMIC MAZE HONEYPOT RESPONSE SYSTEM

Abstract:

In several aspects of the present invention, a processor receives, from a rule-based intrusion detection system, an intercepted request sent by a hacker. A processor analyzes the intercepted request to determine, in part, a type of service and a type of hacker. A processor builds a first layer of a honeypot maze based on the analyzed intercepted request. A processor simulates the first layer of the honeypot maze to the hacker. A processor iteratively builds additional layers of the honeypot maze based on additional intercepted requests from the hacker.
