Honeypot Project

Overview

This honeypot is designed to simulate various administrative and system paths to attract and log unauthorized access attempts. It serves different pages based on the requested path, including a login page, server status, API data, and system information. It also logs interactions, including form submissions, to help analyze potential security threats.

Features

• Dynamic Paths: Handles various paths to simulate a real admin dashboard and system status.
• Logging: Logs all interactions, including POST request body data and general access details.
• Form Handling: Includes form logging to capture data submitted through the login form.
• Error Handling: Provides a custom 404 page for unknown paths.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (>= 12.x)
• npm (Node Package Manager)
