I bought this to help perform research on a security course that I'm preparing. Even though the information on some of the honeypot programs is a bit outdated, I still found the book very helpful. It's well-written, and gives a very good explanation of how to implement honeypots. It was a tremendous help in my research.

This book is written with obvious passion towards honeypots as the author obviously believes in the power of honeypots in making the corporate network a safe place. The discussion cover simple and advanced topics in honeypot motives, creation and trapping hacker information. In all, a well researched book that evangelises the use of honeypot intrusion detection

Great Overview of Honeypots for the Beginner
Rating (4)
Date: 2004-08-27
This book did a great job of presenting the concepts of modern honeypot technology. It begins by covering the basic concepts of what the different types of honeypots can do, the different design concepts of production honeypots vs. research honeypots and how honeypots can be an aid to network security in any organization. The one thing I did'nt like was the "flow" of the book and the way some chapters were written. There was an exessive amount of fluff, some topics were beat like a dead horse. The book could easily have shaved off 50 pages making it a better read. Overall, it was a great book, I learned a lot, and would recomend it to anyone looking for an intro to honeypots. The included CD was a plus as well.

Honeypots is an excellent introduction to the subject of honeypots, useful as a reference for experts as well as for beginners to the subject. It is written very clearly and provides step-by-step instructions with plenty of examples and screenshots. It covers commercial, open source, and do-it-yourself solutions, from very simple low-interaction detection honeypots to very high-interaction research honeypots. A CD-ROM is included with software and example data collected by honeypots. One defect is a fairly large number of typos.
