🌐 VMware Honeypot (Python Flask) 🚀 ** Cyber Security - Blue Team - Honeypot for VMware (on-prem)**
[Quick Start Guide for VMware Honeypot] Welcome to our VMware Honeypot – a simple yet effective tool to gather insights into potential cyber threats targeting VMware environments. Follow these steps to set up the honeypot and enhance your understanding of attack vectors.
🌟 Features: Realistic Interface: Inspired by the vSphere Web Client, our honeypot offers a basic yet convincing environment for potential attackers. Basic Interaction: The honeypot interacts with users through simulated endpoints, capturing minimal data such as IP addresses and timestamps. Flask Python Backend: Powered by Flask, the Python web framework, the backend of the honeypot simulates basic endpoints. Security Measures: The honeypot is designed with isolation and monitoring to prevent any potential risks. Analysis and Reporting: Collected data can be analyzed periodically for basic insights into attack methods.
🛠️ Prerequisites: A Linux/Windows desktop or server to host the honeypot. Basic knowledge of web development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript). Flask Python web framework for backend simulation.
[Setup Steps:]
-
Clone the Repository: Start by cloning our GitHub repository containing the VMware Honeypot code.
-
Configure Flask Backend:
- Install Flask and other required dependencies using: pip install flask
-
Run the Honeypot -Navigate to the project directory cd VMware_honeypot
-
Run the Honeypot:
- python vmware.py
🚀 Usage: Once executed, ensure the server is running. Visit http://localhost:5000 - you will be redirected to the dummy VMWare Sphere single sign-on page /ui/.
Here, when somebody attempts to log in, a message will be logged into honeypot.log with relevant information.
📊 Analysis: Periodically review the honeypot.log file for insights into potential attack methods. Analyze IP addresses, timestamps, and any captured data to understand trends.
