We’ve been developing a paper to create awareness and help to guide the deployment of wireless honeypots, mainly centered on 802.11 (WiFi) technologies. The paper is focused on providing a design and architectural overview for the deployment of wireless honeypots, coined as HoneySpots.
We’re currently involved in deploying these technologies, capture attacks and related information, develop analysis tools, and will publish a future paper with the findings. Meanwhile, we would like to publicly promote the deployment of these technologies by releasing this paper. If you are interested in developing or/and deploying wireless honeynets, contact us at project at (removethis)honeynet.org.es. The Spanish Honeynet Project wants to promote this research area, including multiple wireless technologies, mainly 802.11 and Bluetooth today, with future additions such as WiMAX.
What is GHH?
Google Hack Honeypot is the reaction to a new type of malicious web traffic: search engine hackers. GHH is a “Google Hack” honeypot. It is designed to provide reconaissance against attackers that use search engines as a hacking tool against your resources. GHH implements honeypot theory to provide additional security to your web presence.
NoAH is a three-year project to gather and analyse information about the nature of Internet cyberattacks. It will also develop an infrastructure to detect and provide early warning of such attacks, so that appropriate countermeasures may be taken to combat them.
What is Argos?
Argos is a full and secure system emulator designed for use in honeypots. It is based on Qemu, an open source emulator that uses dynamic translation to achieve a fairly good emulation speed.

Nepenthes is a low interaction honeypot like honeyd or mwcollect. Low Interaction Honeypots emulate _known_ vulnerabilities to collect information about potential attacks. Nepenthes is designed to emulate vulnerabilties worms use to spread, and to capture these worms. As there are many possible ways for worms to spread, Nepenthes is modular. There are module interface to
