Adaptive Deception Architectures: Conceptual Foundations for LLM-Powered Honeypot Systems

Címlapos tartalom

Conventional honeypot systems lack the dynamic adaptability required to counter evolving cyber threats, necessitating innovative approaches to automated deception. Building on foundational research from my diploma work in adaptive defense mechanisms, this paper proposes a conceptual architecture integrating large language models with next-generation honeypot systems. The framework establishes three pillars of intelligent deception: context-aware interaction through multi-modal dialogue processing that maintains service-specific personas, dynamic environment morphing guided by real-time attacker behavior analysis, and automated artifact generation creating credible system fingerprints. Security safeguards embedded in the design include adversarial prompt hardening and operational sandboxing to mitigate model exploitation risks. Experimental evaluations show marked improvements in attacker engagement compared to conventional rule-based systems, with generated responses demonstrating high plausibility during simulated advanced threat scenarios. This architecture advances adaptive cyber deception by enabling autonomous response calibration while addressing fingerprinting vulnerabilities inherent in traditional honeypot implementations, laying groundwork for intelligent defense systems capable of organic interaction with malicious actors.
