Honeypot

A Honeypot is decoy computer system designed to identify and/or trap hackers and other malicious actors. A honeypot sometimes offers a tempting set of data to attract fraudsters and counteracts their attempts to hack into or otherwise compromise an information system. A honeypot acts as bait by appearing to be a legitimate part of a website, database, or computer system, but is being monitored by IT and security professionals seeking insights into new methods of attack.


Hospitality

Hospitality is a term used to describe how well a certain location or entity accommodates somebody. If a person is well accommodated for when they visit somewhere, it would likely be said that that place provided good hospitality.


Host Card Emulation

In device technology, host card emulation is the software architecture that provides exact virtual representation of various electronic identity (access, transit and banking) cards using only software. Prior to the HCE architecture, near field communication (NFC) transactions were mainly carried out using secure elements. HCE enables mobile applications running on supported operating systems to offer payment card and access card solutions independently of third parties while leveraging cryptographic processes traditionally used by hardware-based secure elements without the need for a physical secure element.
