A honeypot is a controlled and safe environment for showing how attackers work and examining different types of threats. With a honeypot, security staff won't be distracted by real traffic using the network - they'll be able to focus 100% on the threat. Honeypots can also catch internal threats.
What is a honey pot and why is it used?
A honeypot is a security mechanism that creates a virtual trap to lure attackers. An intentionally compromised computer system allows attackers to exploit vulnerabilities so you can study them to improve your security policies.
Why are honey pots bad?
The greatest disadvantage of honeypots is they have a narrow field of view: They only see what activity is directed against them. If an attacker breaks into your network and attacks a variety of systems, your honeypot will be blissfully unaware of the activity unless it is attacked directly.
