A centralized management and data collection server for deploying and monitoring multiple honeypot sensors.
Modern Honey Network (MHN) is a centralized management server for deploying and monitoring multiple honeypot sensors. It provides a web interface for managing honeypot deployments, collecting attack data, and visualizing malicious activity in real-time. The system solves the problem of scalable honeypot deployment and centralized security monitoring.
Security professionals, network administrators, and cybersecurity researchers who need to deploy and manage distributed honeypot infrastructures for threat detection and analysis.
Developers choose MHN because it simplifies the deployment of multiple honeypot technologies through a single interface, provides immediate data collection capabilities, and offers integration with popular security tools like Splunk and ArcSight.

Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Allows quick deployment and management of multiple honeypot types from a single web interface, reducing operational overhead through automated deploy scripts.
Includes deploy scripts for popular honeypots like Snort, Cowrie, Dionaea, and Glastopf, enabling diverse threat detection without manual setup.
Provides a web dashboard with Honeymap integration for immediate viewing of new attacks and sensor status, enhancing situational awareness.
Offers built-in scripts for forwarding logs to Splunk and ArcSight, facilitating easy integration with existing security infrastructure.
Undergoing a partial rewrite for Python 3 targeting Ubuntu 20.04, leading to dependency issues and instability on newer platforms, with the last stable commit for older Ubuntu versions.
Docker support is explicitly not maintained and lacks Splunk, ArcSight, and ELK integrations, making containerized deployments unreliable for production use.
The community data collection feature is noted as out of date but may still attempt to send data to Anomali, with unclear control and potential privacy concerns.
