SSH server auditing (banner, key exchange, encryption, mac, compression, compatibility, security, etc)
An easy to set up and use SSH honeypot, a fake SSH server that lets anyone in and logs their activity
Cowrie is an SSH and Telnet honeypot that simulates vulnerable services to capture attacker commands, file transfers, and brute force attempts for deception and monitoring. It uses Python-based protocol emulation within a Twisted event-driven network framework to handle concurrent connections, while maintaining an in-memory virtual filesystem that logs every read, write, and traversal operation. The honeypot distinguishes itself through LLM-driven dynamic response generation, producing context-aware shell replies that adapt to attacker commands rather than relying on static templates.
