HONEYPOT COMPUTING SERVICES THAT INCLUDE SIMULATED COMPUTING RESOURCES

The disclosure relates to provisioning honeypot computing services using a simulation state database to simulate a set of computing resources. One example includes a system that receives a mutating request associated with honeypot credentials, updates a simulation state database associated with the honeypot credentials at least based on the mutating request and generates a simulated mutating response based at least on the simulation state database that simulates a response to the mutating request. The system can also receive a query request associated with the honeypot credentials, query the simulation state database at least based on the query request, and generate a simulated query response based at least on the simulation state database that simulates a response to the query request.
