Open Honeypot Data
This is currently a proof-of-concept.
- Current number of honeypot severs: 6
- Server Locations: globally, different VPS providers
- IP Protocol: IPv4-only for now
- Times: UTC
The goals:
- gathering information about common attacks
- sharing data
- learning to automate
Honeypot Types
SSH
Data is percent-encoded (like an URL) to provide the information lossless and fully reversible as all kind of special characters are getting entered into the login field.. Spaces are %20. This adds one step, but makes it easier to see differences and run reports. Use something like Cyberchef to decode it in your browser.
- harvesting of credentials used in brute force attempts
- honeypot listening on default port TCP/22
- low interactive, harvest credentials, no shell
It is productive, but I have to process the data.
