## What is Shockpot-Frontend?

Shockpot-Frontend is a web-based visualization tool designed to display statistics and data from Shockpot honeypots. The tool requires a specific version of Shockpot that logs data to PostgreSQL databases for proper functionality.

The frontend provides comprehensive statistical analysis and graphical representations of honeypot activity through various visualization components. It incorporates multiple libraries including Libchart PHP for chart generation, QGoogleVisualizationAPI for Google's Visualization API integration, RedBeanPHP for database operations, and MaxMind with geoPlugin for geolocation services.

The tool is built on PHP and requires version 5.3.4 or higher along with specific packages including libapache2-mod-php5, php5-pgsql, php5-gd, and php5-curl. Installation involves downloading the source code, configuring database connections, and setting appropriate file permissions for the generated-graphs directory.

The tool generates various charts and graphs to help security professionals analyze attack patterns, geographic distributions, and other relevant metrics from honeypot deployments.
