CyberLaw 101: A primer on US laws related to honeypot deployments (PDF, 1.77MB)Published: 16 Mar, 2007
Created by
Jerome Radcliffe

The goal of this paper is to provide a general primer on two legal issues related to honeypots, privacy right and entrapment, and to provide practical advice regarding prudent actions to take for legal due diligence. By no means should this paper serve as a replacement for legal advice from informed legal counsel. Instead this paper is meant to serve as a bridge between the legal and technical world on the honeypot issue.
