Analysis of Information Gathering Technology Based on Honeypot

In order to improve the validity and pertinency of gathering attack information in network security research,the paper introduces the new active network security technology——Honeypot.,which can attract attacks,and monitor and track attacker,and record the relevant actions so that they can be analyzed to study the tools,tactics and methods of the intruder.The paper introduces the basic theory of honeypot,and the security values of Honeypot are analyzed,then the technology of gathering information are researched in detail.And the security threat and defense tactics of the honeypot system are discussed.
