Abstract: A method and system are described of providing an electronic device with a software environment having a honeypot mode of operation to which the device is capable of switching upon recognition of a message from an external device or of a pre-determined internal state. Switching to the honeypot mode of operation may include instituting an automatic sending of reports based on usage of the electronic device to an external device, modifying the non-user-observable behaviour of certain user-invokable operations, and manipulating data stored on the electronic device.
