Welcome!

The German Honeynet Project is a Chapter of the Honeynet Project. Founded in June 2004 by Maximillian Dornseif and Thorsten Holz, the German Honeynet Project supports the mission of learning the tools, tactics and motives of cyber threats and publishing the lessons learned.

The German Honeynet Project works in close relation with the Laboratory for Dependable Distributed Systems at the University of Mannheim. One of the main focuses of the German Honeynet Project is bringing Honeynet research to a solid scientific foundation and assessing the value of honeynet technology as a research tool.
