SSH Honeypot

This program listens for incoming ssh connections and logs the ip address, username, and password used. This was written to gather rudimentary intelligence on brute force attacks.

Quick start

  • ensure libssh is installed (apt install libssh-dev)
  • edit src/config.h
  • ssh-keygen -t rsa (save to non-default location!)
  • make
  • bin/ssh-honeypot -r ssh-honeypot.rsa
