In computer terminology, the term Honeypot refers to a security structure that is designed to trap unauthorized users, such as hackers or spammers so they can be identified and prevented from causing further problems. A honeypot is a server or network hosted by an organization with fake or fabricated data. This is used to lure-in potential attackers to try find security vulnerabilities in the system. Honeypot technology is mostly adopted by large companies and organizations involved in cybersecurity. It helps cybersecurity researchers, network administrators, and security teams to learn the attack patterns and enhance their cybersecurity strategy in response to real-world threats and identify potential blind spots in the existing architecture. IP addresses of attackers can also be collected and blacklisted on actual systems. Honeypots vary based on design and deployment models, but they are all decoys intended to look like legitimate, vulnerable systems to attract cybercriminals.
