Deploy OT Honeypots

In this lab, you’ll configure a honeypot that closely resembles a fuel tank monitoring system commonly used in the oil and gas industry. When you’re finished, you’ll understand the value of deploying honeypots and the importance of configuring them to ensure they look realistic in their deployed environment. You’ll also analyze adversary interactions with the honeypot to understand attacker behaviors, motivations and intent.
