Stinging the Swarm: Extracting Attacker Intelligence from a Twin-Controller OT Honeypot
Researchers present a defense pipeline using a twin-controller OT honeypot to intercept and analyze autonomous attacker agents. The system routes hostile requests to a decoy environment to gather intelligence without risking the real plant.
