  • nothing else behaves that way.

    This is quite wrong, but it doesn’t matter, because if your setup is insecure, then you’ll find out sooner or later anyway. The hacking space is pretty much automated at this point, which is why my honeypot works at all.

    Do you also think that anyone who puts Anubis in front of their website is getting the attention of anonymous illuminati master-hackers because it causes their bots to waste a few processing cycles? Tarpitting is no different. If your bot is written poorly, it will get stuck on even legitimate pages.




  • If you’re going to open something, SSH is far, far more battle-tested than much other software, even popular software. Pragmatically, If someone is sitting on a 0-day for SSH, do you genuinely think they’re gonna waste that on you and me? Either they’re gonna sell it to cash out as fast as possible, or they’ll sit on it while plotting an attack against someone who has real money. It is an unhealthy level of paranoia to suggest that SSH is not secure, or that it’s less secure than the hundreds of other solutions to this problem.
