Agenda • Technical Overview – Sean Ensz • Production Benefits – Sallie Wright • Research Benefits – Dr. Mark Weiser
Technical Overview • Core system based on a Honeynet design • A Honeynet is a network of honeypots • A honeypot is an information system resource whose value lies in illicit use of that resource • A honeypot has no legitimate users • Any traffic going to and from the system in inherently suspicious *Source: www.honeynet.org
Future Improvements • Honeywall • Needs better hardware & network driver support • Beta version to be released today • Host based logging • Currently relies on Sebek • Lacks host log and process tree support • Working with Third Brigade to develop a honeypot version of their product

AIPS Production Benefits Identification of malicious hosts Ability to block at the border of Oklahoma’s OneNet state-wide network
Collaboration A key benefit is the ability to provide academic programs with tools to research Develop new ways to strengthen overall IT security.
Production Goal To contain and prevent intrusions while providing the data Flow analysis to tune the IT security process.
