JHoney Description

Simulate vulnerable net services on your Mac to trick an attacker or trojan so you can take countermeasures JHoney is a honeypot tool developed in Java. A honeypot is a system or service that looks vulnerable to the Internet. The purpose is to trick hackers to attack the honeypot system, and the honeypot could then take countermeasures against the attacker. JHoney simulates network services by open servers at user specified ports on a network computer. The port/service appeares to be existing and open to an attacker or trojan. Once an attacker connects to the service, his IP address is logged and he could even be denied any access to the computer if the system uses a firewall that supports dynamic blacklisting. JHoney has been developed to work with Shorewall, but should work with any firewall that has the ability to blacklist an IP address using a shell command or adding entries to text files. All attacks against JHoney are logged with time for the attack, attacker IP and attacker hostname. JHoney has a built-in HTTP server which can easily be accessed with any web browser. From the webinterface you can control the honeypot deamon, change configuration, view attacks, or generate attack statistics for a specific day. The server uses login so you can control the honeypot remotely. The webserver has extensive help information to get you started! Requirements: · Java · A firewall supporting dynamic blacklisting (optional)
