Abstract

With the increasing prevalence of cyber threats and the growing demand for effective monitoring and analysis of malicious activities, advanced cybersecurity solutions have become essential. This research presents a Honeypot system designed to address this need by simulating vulnerable services based on common web application vulnerabilities, particularly Information Disclosure and SQL Injection, to attract, detect, and analyze attacker behavior within a controlled environment.

The developed system focuses on web-based attack vectors rather than traditional network services, enabling the capture and logging of malicious requests, exploitation attempts, payloads, and intrusion patterns related to Information Disclosure and SQL Injection vulnerabilities. It also incorporates mechanisms for real-time alerting, structured attack reporting, and visualization dashboards to enhance security analysis and threat intelligence generation.

Furthermore, the architecture is designed with extensibility in mind, allowing the integration of additional vulnerability modules in the future, supporting a wide range of emerging attack vectors and exploitation techniques.

Overall, the results demonstrate that the proposed Honeypot provides a robust, scalable, and user-friendly framework that significantly improves threat intelligence collection and supports proactive cybersecurity defense strategies.
