摘要
The growing interest in Honeypots has resulted in increased research, and consequently, a large number of research surveys and/or reviews. Most Honeypot surveys and/or reviews focus on specific and narrow Honeypot research areas. This study aims at exploring and presenting advances and trends in Honeypot’s research and development areas. To this end, a systematic methodology and meta-review analysis were applied to the selection, evaluation, and qualitative examination of the most influential Honeypot surveys and/or reviews available in scientific bibliographic databases. A total of 188 papers have been evaluated and 22 research papers are found by this study to have a higher impact. The findings of the study suggest that the Honeypot survey and/or review papers of considerable relevance to the research community were mostly published in 2018, by IEEE, in conferences organized in India, and included in the IEEE Xplore database. Also, there have been few qualities Honeypot surveys and/or reviews published after 2018. Furthermore, the study identified 10 classes of vital and emerging themes and/or key topics in Honeypot research. This work contributes to research efforts employing established systematic review and reporting methods in Honeypot research. We have included our meta-review methodology, in order to allow further work in this area aiming at a better understanding of the progression of Honeypot research and advances.
