Chameleon is considered very effective. This is an active defense tool. The system simulates open, unprotected ports and takes on attempts to find vulnerabilities - by Dean Chester, Chief Editor of cooltechzone

Credentials Monitoring

General Features

  • Modular approach (honeypots run as scripts or imported as objects)
  • Most honeypots serve as servers (Only a few that emulate the application layer protocols)
  • Settings servers with username, password, and banner (Default username and password are test)
  • ICMP, DNS TCP, and UDP payloads are parsed and checked against common patterns
  • Visualized Grafana interfaces for monitoring the results (Filter by IP - default is all)
  • Unstructured and structured logs are parsed and inserted into Postgres
  • All honeypots contain clients for testing the servers
  • All ports are opened and monitored by default
  • Easy automation and can be deployed on AWS ec2

Install and run

On ubuntu 18 or 19 System (test)

git clone https://github.com/qeeqbox/chameleon.git
cd chameleon
sudo chmod +x ./run.sh
sudo ./run.sh test

The Grafana interface http://localhost:3000 will open automatically after the initialization process (username is admin and password is admin). If you don't see the Chameleon dashboard, click on the search icon in the left bar and add it.

On ubuntu 18 or 19 System (Deploy)

git clone https://github.com/qeeqbox/chameleon.git
cd chameleon
sudo chmod +x ./run.sh
sudo ./run.sh deploy

The Grafana interface http://localhost:3000 will open automatically after the initialization process (username is changeme457f6460cb287 and password is changemed23b8cc6a20e0). If you don't see the Chameleon dashboard, click on the search icon in the left bar and add it.

Wait for a few seconds until honeypot shows the IP address

...
honeypot_1  | Your IP: 172.19.0.3
honeypot_1  | Your MAC: 09:45:aa:23:10:03
...

You can interact with the honeypot from your local system

ping 172.19.0.3
or run any network tool against it
nmap 172.19.0.3

Nested - Docker

sudo docker run -it --privileged -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ubuntu:latest
git clone https://github.com/qeeqbox/chameleon.git
cd chameleon
sudo chmod +x ./run.sh
sudo ./run.sh test

Or, import your desired non-blocking server as an object (SSH Server)

You can do that by using this package honeypots

If you don't see Chameleon dashboard, click on the search icon in the left bar and add it
