Abstract

With the continuous growth of cyber threats and the increasing need for effective monitoring and analysis of malicious activities, advanced cybersecurity solutions have become essential. This project presents WiseTrap, a modular Honeypot framework designed to simulate vulnerable web environments in order to attract attackers and collect threat intelligence within a controlled and secure infrastructure.

The framework primarily focuses on common web application attack vectors, particularly Information Disclosure and SQL Injection vulnerabilities. By emulating vulnerable services and endpoints, WiseTrap enables the collection and logging of malicious requests, exploitation attempts, payloads, and attacker behavior for security analysis and incident investigation.

WiseTrap includes centralized logging, real-time monitoring, structured attack reporting, and visualization dashboards that assist in understanding intrusion patterns and identifying potential threats. The framework is also designed with scalability and extensibility in mind, allowing future integration of additional vulnerability modules and attack simulation techniques.

The proposed framework aims to provide a practical, scalable, and user-friendly solution for improving threat intelligence collection and supporting proactive cybersecurity defense strategies against modern web-based attacks.
