It functions as a Docker-based deception system, simulating vulnerable network environments to gather intelligence on threat actors. The system features a distributed sensor network using a hub-and-spoke architecture, allowing remote sensors to transmit logs back to a central management hub. It integrates large language models to create a dynamic deception engine capable of adaptive interactions with attackers. The platform covers a broad range of security capabilities, including the emulation of vulnerable services, passive network traffic analysis, and the use of HTTP tarpitting to exhaust attacker resources. Captured event logs are aggregated into real-time dashboards and geographic maps for threat data visualization. Administrative access to the tool suite and dashboards is managed through a reverse proxy and authenticated web access control. ## Tags ### Part of an Awesome List - [Honeypots and Deception](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/awesome-lists/security/honeypots-and-deception.md) — Deploys simulated vulnerable services and HTTP tarpits to mislead attackers and capture their behavior. - [Honeypot Management](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/awesome-lists/security/honeypot-management.md) — Runs a collection of simulated vulnerable services in containers to capture attacker behavior and telemetry. - [Multi-Service Honeypots](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/awesome-lists/security/multi-service-honeypots.md) — Runs a diverse collection of containerized services to simulate vulnerable systems and capture wide-ranging attacker activity.
