Deception using honeypots can help fight cyberattacks. Researchers studied how the amount of honeypots in a network affects attackers' decisions. They used a game where participants could probe or attack webservers. Participants were split into groups with different honeypot proportions. Results showed that more honeypots led to more honeypot interactions and fewer attacks on real webservers. This can help in cyber deception strategies.
