Hi all,

The Honeynet Project, Honeynet Research Alliance, and Azusa Pacific
University Honeynet Project have released the Scan of the Month for
April 2003. This Scan of the Month is suitable for analysts of
beginning and intermediate skill.

The Scan involves a series of attacks on a vulnerable Windows 2000
host that resulted in the host being incorporated into a large botnet
consisting of at least 15,164 distinct hosts. The data to be analyzed
consists of obfuscated Snort logs collected over several days of
honeynet operation.

The details of the latest Scan of the Month are available at:

        <http://www.honeynet.org/scans/scan27/>

The deadline for submissions is 24:00 GMT, Friday, April 25, 2003.
Results will be released Friday, May 2, 2003. You may submit responses
to only the Beginning Questions or both the Beginning and Intermediate
Questions.  Submissions will be separately judged by members of the
Azusa Pacific University Honeynet Project, based on the set(s) of
questions answered.

Cheers,
