Heavy Networking 576: Deception And Canaries In Network Security
Today’s Heavy Networking examines the role of deception and “canaries” in network security. A canary sits on a network segment (or multiple segments) and sounds the alarm if it comes under attack. Like a honeypot, the idea is that a canary serves as an early warning system about attacks and exploits that might be aimed at sensitive systems on your network.
Our guest is Haroon Meer, an expert in canaries.
We discuss:
* The role of deception in security
* What a canary brings to your security posture and how it works
* Active and passive canaries
* Deployment models
* The operational impacts and potential risks of canaries
