In computing, a "honeypot" refers to a security mechanism set up to detect, deflect, or study unauthorized access or use of information systems. Essentially, it is a decoy system that appears to be a legitimate target for cyber attackers. Honeypots can take various forms, including virtual machines, fake databases, or entire simulated networks, and are designed with the goal of providing a controlled environment for monitoring malicious activity.
