Seeing and Hearing Internet Background Radiation

OP here.

See the hidden world of bot attacks and scanner chatter. Listen to Internet Background Radiation on a virtual Geiger counter.

Here we are capturing Internet chatter across 8 protocols: (SSH, Telnet, FTP, RDP, SMB, SIP, HTTP, and SMTP), targeting 8 servers distributed throughout the world.

Check out the 3D spinning globe heatmap. Explore the most popular usernames and passwords across a variety of protocols. See the ISP Wall of Shame.

If the info is coming in too fast and furious, hit the pause button (or space bar if you have a keyboard).

We are using a framework for deploying and displaying honeypot activity: https://github.com/djkurlander/knock-knock. Honeypots transmit their data (in JSON format) to a monitor that stores the info in a SQL database and publishes the info to redis. The front end service (using uvicorn) gathers this info and serves it to browsers via web sockets.
