About this project
Description from the program archive
A honeypot is a security resource that mimics a vulnerable system and is used to lure and trap cyber-attackers. Over the last decade, many open-source honeypots have been developed by the community as side projects without any funding or company behind them. This led to experimental implementations of honeypot ideas, that haven't been tested by security teams thoroughly. This project comes to solve this exact problem. Honeyscanner will be an open-source vulnerability scanner for honeypots. Equipped with a penetration testing strategy that starts from reconnaissance techniques to more advanced ones like exploiting bugs in libraries used by the honeypot, fuzzing and DoS attacks. The tool will be written in Python.
