We are here for a reason.
Another honeypot definition looks at whether a honeypot is high-interaction or low-interaction. Low-interaction honeypots use fewer resources and collect basic information about the level and type of threat and where it is coming from. They are easy and quick to set up, usually with just some basic simulated TCP and IP protocols and network services. But there's nothing in the honeypot to engage the attacker for very long, and you won't get in-depth information on their habits or on complex threats.
On the other hand, high-interaction honeypots aim to get hackers to spend as much time as possible within the honeypot, giving plenty of information about their intentions and targets, as well as the vulnerabilities they are exploiting and their modus operandi. Think of it as a honeypot with added ‘glue’ - databases, systems, and processes that can engage an attacker for much longer. This enables researchers to track where attackers go in the system to find sensitive information, what tools they use to escalate privileges or what exploits they use to compromise the system.
