In this video, we set up a Cowrie SSH Honeypot on a VPS to create a fake, simulated environment designed to troll hackers. From customizing banners to crafting funny shadow files and monitoring their every move, we expose their strategies as they attempt to establish persistence and modify SSH keys. This interactive demo combines cybersecurity education with some good laughs. Learn how to harden your system, set up a honeypot, and uncover the fascinating world of hacker interactions.
