Notes on  IRON BOX 

[Unix/Internet] A special environment set up to trap a CRACKER
logging in over remote connections long enough to be traced. May
include a modified SHELL restricting the cracker's movements in
unobvious ways, and `bait' files designed to keep him interested and
logged on. See also BACK DOOR, FIREWALL MACHINE, VENUS FLYTRAP,
and Clifford Stoll's account in The Cuckoo's Egg of how he made and
used one (see the Bibliography in Appendix C). Compare PADDED CELL,
HONEY POT.
