Christine is part of the management team in her company. She has been asked to have a meeting with the company’s lawyer and security officer about the honeypot systems that are installed on the company’s network. What issues are Christine most likely going to be faced within in this situation?
A.
Entrapment issues
B.
Improperly using enticement
C.
Transborder information flow abuse
D.
Illegally capturing sensitive information
Explanation:
It is important to draw a line between enticement and entrapment when
implementing a honeypot system. Legal and liability issues surround each. If the
system only has open ports and services that an attacker might want to take
advantage of, this would be an example of enticement. If the system has a web page
indicating the user can download files, and once the user does this the
administrator charges this user with trespassing, it would be entrapment. Entrapment
is where the intruder is induced or tricked into committing a crime. Entrapment is
illegal and cannot be used when charging an individual with hacking or unauthorized
activity.
This questions really needs to be fixed.
