It closely describes basic thoughts, together with advantages and disadvantages of this concept. The main aim is a low interaction honeypot Honeyd, its functionality and possible extensional features. As a practical part of the text there is a description of principles of implementation Honeyd service scripts, which are represented as a simulation of behavior of computer worm Conficker. Further it describes creation of automated script used for analysis and processing of gathered data, captured during actual deployment of Honeyd in Internet network
