Looking for Honeypots???

["David Jiménez Domínguez" <djdsecurity () gmail com>]

Hi list!!

Yesterday ZDnet  issued a note [1] about cybercriminals looking for
antivirus firm's honeypots in order to launch attacks against them,
specially those for malware collection. I've read some docs about the
same topic [2][3] some days ago...

Have yout ever seen something like that within your honeynets?

I think one of the reasons of this actions is to stop the botnet
hunting and botnet hijacking, not to be aware if they are being
watched mainly...

What do you thing??
