Abstract

The main objectives of this work is to present our preliminary experience in simulating a virtual distributed honeynet environment at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM) using Honeywall CDROM [1], Snort, Sebek and Tcpreplay [3] tools. In our honeynet design, we utilized the Honeywall CDROM to act as a centralized logging center for our distributed high-interaction honeypots. All honeypot servers, as well as the Honeywall CDROM itself, were built on top of a virtualized VMWare environment, while their logs were forwarded to the centralized server.
