Modern attacks are being made against client side applications, such as web browsers, which most users use to surf and communicate on the internet. Client honeypots visit and interact with suspect web sites in order to detect and collect information about malware to protect users from malicious websites or to allow security professionals to investigate malicious content. This paper will present the idea of using web-based technology and integrating it with a client honeypot by building a low interaction client honeypot tool called Honeyware. It describes the benefits of Honeyware as well as the challenges of a low interaction client honeypot and provides some ideas for how these challenges could be overcome.
