A short exploration of industrial honeypot research in its current state, including what popular solutions look like; what function they perform; how cyber deception benefits industrial control systems; what challenges their deployment; and what future research could look like in this area. Despite being a defensive technology, this talk will address honeypot research from both an offensive and defensive perspective.
I'm a PhD student at the Bristol Cyber Security (TIPs-at-Scale) Centre for Doctoral Training. My primary area of research is the application of honeypots in industrial control systems, focusing on the optimal design and testing of individual deployments. Before this I worked in a Security Operations Centre. I pivoted into industrial control systems because I love the physical engineering aspect of it and a passion to secure the infrastructure that people use in their every day life.
