In the paper, they give detection rates for newly capture malware range between 73% and 84% across four different antivirus engines. Clearly, relying on antivirus software is not going to work for everyone, all the time. In this paper we describe how a particular low-interaction honeypot, Nepenthes can be used to quickly alert an administrator to a network compromise. It captures malware and can assist in containing and removing the infection.
