Abstract:
Techniques for integrating a honey network with a target network environment (e.g., an enterprise network) to counter IP and peer-checking evasion techniques are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system for integrating a honey network with a target network environment includes a device profile data store that includes a plurality of attributes of each of a plurality of devices in the target network environment; a virtual clone manager executed on a processor that instantiates a virtual clone of one or more devices in the target network environment based on one or more attributes for a target device in the device profile data store; and a honey network policy that is configured to route an external network communication from the virtual clone for the target device in the honey network to an external device through the target network environment.

Claim (Index 12):
The system recited in  claim 1 , wherein the honey network policy is configured to include a plurality of specified IP addresses and/or specified Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) ranges for allowed communications from the virtual clone in the honey network to the target device in the target network environment, and wherein if another virtual clone in the honey network does not exist for another target device, then the external communication is routed from the virtual clone in the honey network to the another device in the target network environment such that peer checks by an attacker cannot be used to determine that the malware sample was detonated on the virtual clone in the honey network.
