At the same time the number of hacking and abuse cases targeted at host that is connected to the internet also has been rising. There is a need to identify whether host that is connected to the internet via DSL internet connection are also vulnerable to hacking and abuse threat from the internet. The threat would be identify with the implementation of high interaction honeypot. A honeynet architecture consist of normal OS as the high interaction honeypot is connected to the internet via DSL connection and monitored by a monitoring station that used Snort IDS. It is found out that computer that connected to the internet via DSL connection also exposed to hacking and abuse threat. The research recorded a total of 19120 attack alert generated by snort. One of the honeypot deployed has been abused as an IRC bot server. The attack experienced including scanning activity, attempted admin, worms and even marketing advertisement. 2004 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/64437/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/64437/1/64437.PDF text en public masters Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences Samat, Isa (Assoc.
