# Cowrie
|
|
|
|
Cowrie is a medium interaction SSH honeypot designed to log brute force attacks and, most importantly, the entire shell interaction performed by the attacker.
|
|
|
|
Cowrie is directly based on [Kippo](http://github.com/desaster/kippo/) by Upi Tamminen (desaster).
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
Some interesting features:
|
|
* Fake filesystem with the ability to add/remove files. A full fake filesystem resembling a Debian 5.0 installation is included
|
|
* Possibility of adding fake file contents so the attacker can 'cat' files such as /etc/passwd. Only minimal file contents are included
|
|
* Session logs stored in an [UML Compatible](http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/) format for easy replay with original timings
|
|
* Cowrie saves files downloaded with wget/curl or uploaded with SFTP and scp for later inspection
|
|
|
|
Additional functionality over standard kippo:
|
|
|
|
* SFTP and SCP support for file upload
|
|
* Support for SSH exec commands
|
|
* Logging of direct-tcp connection attempts (ssh proxying)
|
|
* Logging in JSON format for easy processing in log management solutions
|
|
* Many, many additional commands
|
|
|
|
## Requirements

|
Software required:
|
|
|
|
* An operating system (tested on Debian, CentOS, FreeBSD and Windows 7)

|
|

Maybe. See [FAQ](https://github.com/desaster/kippo/wiki/FAQ)
