Xen is a virtual machine monitor that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems on the same computer hardware at the same time with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Honeypot is a decoy system, deployed throughout the network, which purposely built to attract and deceive computer intruders and malicious programs. In this paper, we review the combination of both, virtualization technologies of Xen and honeypot concept, in order to deploy and run virtual honeypot on top of virtual machine monitor.

A honeypot is a computer resource that is deployed in the network to attract attackers. It is designed to be attacked and misused by them. The functionality of a honeypot depends on its technical configuration made by the system administrators. To properly blend in with the environment, a honeypot must be configured to mimic the production hosts within the network environment which is very dynamic. This paper reviews research on dynamic and intelligent honeypots.
