Abstract

A method for the dynamic control of resources of a honeypot system based on the graph of potential attacks is proposed to allow for the deployment of a virtual network infrastructure of any scale, according to which, under the conditions of limited computational resources, the virtual network infrastructure varies its configuration, adapting to the actions of an intruder.
