honeypot based tool using ann

A honeypot is a non-production system, design to interact with cyber-attackers to collect intelligence on attack techniques and behaviors. There has been great amount of work done in the field of network intrusion detection over the past three decades. With networks getting faster and with the increasing dependence on the Internet both at the personal and commercial level, intrusion detection becomes a challenging process. The challenge here is not only to be able to actively monitor large numbers of systems, but also to be able to react quickly to different events. Before deploying a honeypot tool it is advisable to have a clear idea of what the honeypot should and should not do. There should be clear understanding of the operating systems to be used and services (like a web server, ftp server etc) a honeypot will run. The risks involved should be taken into consideration and methods to tackle or reduce these risks should be understood. This honeypot tool is developed by using ANN. This Honeypot tool has greater efficiency. Honeypot tool are a computer specifically designed to help learn the motives, skills and techniques of the hacker community and also describes in depth the concepts of honeypots and their contribution to the field of network security.
