Abstract

In this paper , with the reference of many problems in current traditional security resource applications, and based on the research on Honeypot Technology, the Honeypot Technology is used in network security defence, and a Honeypot based Distributed Honeynet System is presented. This paper presents a unique method for set up and establishment of Distributed Honeynet System at various Geographical locations using Gen III virtual Honeynet which is running Honey wall CDROM Roo. We are specifically using Linux based host in our current implementation which have single physical network Interface card(NIC) and a large number of virtual Honeypots as Guest OS on the single base operating system.. Three tier based Distributed Honeynet System is presented which is dynamically configurable in terms of IP, services and OS. Further automated botnet command extraction based analysis is presented. We are ensuring that our solution is completely automated.
