An organization wants to gather intelligence on attack techniques by implementing a system that mimics vulnerable services and records interactions with potential intruders. Which of the following would BEST achieve this goal?
Honeypot
Vulnerability scanner
Intrusion detection system
Firewall configured with logging
A honeypot is designed to appear as a vulnerable system to attract attackers. By mimicking services and recording interactions, it allows organizations to study attack methods without compromising actual assets. While an intrusion detection system monitors network traffic for suspicious activity, it does not simulate vulnerable services. A firewall configured with logging controls access but doesn't engage attackers to gather intelligence. A vulnerability scanner identifies weaknesses but doesn't record attacker interactions.
