Honeypots get stickier for hackers (News.com)
News.com reports from
the CanSecWest security show focusing on a talk from the Honeynet
Project. "Because attackers generally encrypt their communications
with a compromised server after successfully breaking in, the group has
modified the operating system used with its system--currently Linux--to
enable it to parrot the commands back to the administrator. Essentially a
wiretap, the function lets administrators see any commands that are being
seen by the operating system."
