Abstract:
1. A method for sensor based attack reflection comprising: detecting an attack at a sensor, the sensor being internal to a firewall on a network; identifying a portion of memory associated with the attack; redirecting, using an access point separate from the sensor, only a data payload of at least the identified portion of memory from the network to a secure network; extracting data associated with the attack, on the secure network; altering, using the access point, a response to the attack to appear to an attacker that the response came from the sensor; redirecting, using the access point, the response to the attack, from the secure network to the sensor; transmitting the response from the sensor to a network location associated with the attack; receiving, by the access point, a subsequent attack communication based on the response; redirecting the subsequent attack communication to the secure network; and analyzing the subsequent attack communication.
