OWA Honeypot
A Flask-based honeypot that simulates Outlook Web App (OWA) environments to attract and analyze malicious activities targeting OWA systems.
OWA Honeypot Description
OWA Honeypot is a Flask-based simulation tool that mimics an Outlook Web App (OWA) environment to attract and capture malicious activities targeting OWA systems. The tool creates a deceptive OWA interface that appears legitimate to potential attackers while logging their interactions and attack attempts. This allows security researchers and cybersecurity professionals to study OWA-specific threat patterns and attack methodologies. The honeypot is built using Python3 and Flask framework, making it lightweight and easy to deploy. It captures various types of malicious activities that commonly target OWA environments, including credential harvesting attempts, brute force attacks, and other exploitation techniques. Installation involves cloning the GitHub repository, setting up a Python3 virtual environment, installing the required dependencies, and executing the owa_pot.py script. The tool provides logging capabilities to record attacker behavior and can be configured for different deployment scenarios. The honeypot includes safety considerations, with recommendations against running on port 80 for internet-facing deployments to prevent unintended exposure or security risks.
