MHN: Deploying a Honeypot

In the last post, I finished setting up the server, and installing the Modern Honey Network (MHN) server and infrastructure. Everything seems to stable and running ok, so now it’s time to move on to deploying the sensors. Fortunately, the MHN server makes this super easy, so let’s deploy a few and see how it goes.
