Google Cloud Functions Honeypot

Deploy a decoy Google Cloud Function that appears to perform a sensitive operation (e.g., accessing a database, processing payment information) but, in reality, only logs invocation attempts and attacker-supplied data.

Fake Google Cloud Service Accounts with High Permissions

Create decoy service accounts with names suggesting elevated privileges (e.g., “deployment-admin,” “database-owner”) but with restricted access. Monitor any attempts to utilize these accounts, which could indicate an attacker attempting privilege escalation or lateral movement.
