READ: Strider HoneyMonkey: Trawling for Windows Exploits
Microsoft Corp. is developing a network of Windows XP "honeymonkeys" to help detect rogue Web sites that exploit security holes to install malware on client machines. The project, code-named Strider HoneyMonkey Exploit Detection, is being created by the Redmond, Wash., company's Cybersecurity and Systems Management Research Group to help the software giant find the source of zero-day exploits targeting the Windows XP operating system.
Microsoft is tight-lipped on details of Strider HoneyMonkey, which appears to be an expansion of the concept of using "honey pots" to attract, and decipher, malicious Web activity.
