- Small daemon that creates virtual hosts on a network (honeypot). Can be used as a virtual honeynet, for network monitoring, or as a spam trap. For *BSD, GNU/Linux, and Solaris.
- Brazilian Honeypots Alliance. Includes tools to summaries honeyd logs, mydoom.pl (A perl script which emulates the backdoor installed by the Mydoom virus), and an OpenBSD LiveCD Honeypot.
- Information covering intrusion detection and prevention systems, research and production honeypots, and incident handling. Also provides general overview of network security issues.
- Techniques, tools and resources for conducting Honeypot Research and Forensic Investigation. White papers include monitoring VMware honeypots, apache web server honeypots, and VMware honeypot forensics.
- The Honeywall CDROM is a bootable CD that installs onto a hard drive and comes with all the tools and functionality for you to implement data capture, control and analysis.
- Impost can either act as a honey pot and take orders from a Perl script controlling how it responds and communicates with connecting clients; or it can operate as a packet sniffer and monitor incoming data to specified destination port supplied by the command-line arguments (pre-release version available).
- A solution to collect worms and other autonomous spreading malware in a non-native environment like FreeBSD or Linux. Some people consider it a next generation honeypot, however computers running mwcollect cannot actually be infected with the malware.
