Abstract

Techniques for providing an intelligent-interaction honeypot for IoT devices in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, a system/process/computer program product for providing an intelligent-interaction honeypot for IoT devices includes receiving a request from an attacker sent to an IP address that is associated with a honeypot instance for Internet of Things (IoT) devices; determining a response to the request using a data store that stores a plurality of responses and associated IoT device information, wherein the plurality of responses and associated IoT device information is generated based on automated machine learning of active probing of physical IoT devices on the Internet; and sending the response from the honeypot instance for IoT devices to the attacker, wherein the attacker is unable to detect that the response is associated with an emulated IoT device.
