sshd-honeypot
The sshd-honeypot is a modified version of the OpenSSH deamon that forwards commands to Cowrie where all commands are interpreted and returned. The sshd-honeypot is designed to let Cowrie log brute force attacks and the shell interaction performed by the attacker. As the sshd-honeypot uses OpenSSH, it can not be fingerprinted based on protocol deviations or differences in error messages.

Cowrie-sshd is a modified version of Cowrie which functions as backend for the sshd-honeypot to interpret commands and log interactions performed by the attacker.
