Building a ‘honeypot’ of fake cameras, networks to deceive military adversaries
Three computer science researchers in the Penn State School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science are teaming up to build a “honeypot,” a decoy suite of fake networks, devices and domains, to entrap and deceive such hackers. They received a two-year, $557,000 grant from the U.S. Army’s Combat Capabilities Development Command, with the possibility of renewal.
