A properly configured honeypot deployed within a production network should be designed to allow outbound connections to other internal systems.
False
True
The correct answer is False. Honeypots are decoy systems designed to attract attackers and analyze their techniques. A properly configured honeypot should be isolated from production systems and should not allow outbound connections to other internal systems. This containment is critical because if compromised, a honeypot with outbound access could become a pivot point for attackers to reach legitimate systems. Best practices for honeypot deployment include implementing strict network segmentation, using data control mechanisms, and ensuring the honeypot can collect valuable intelligence about attack techniques without endangering the actual production environment. The monitoring capabilities should be robust, but the ability to affect other systems should be severely limited to prevent the honeypot from becoming a security liability.
