About ProxyTrap
A global network of honeypots designed to detect and analyze DDoS attacks through proxy abuse
ProxyTrap is an intelligent proxy honeypot that uses a hybrid approach to detect DDoS attacks while preventing abuse. It monitors incoming proxy requests and identifies malicious traffic patterns in real-time.
How It Works
Traffic Monitoring
ProxyTrap operates as a proxy server, accepting connections from various sources and monitoring all incoming traffic patterns in real-time.
Pattern Analysis
The system analyzes traffic patterns to identify suspicious behavior and potential DDoS attacks, filtering out normal traffic from malicious activity.
Intelligence Gathering
All traffic is logged and analyzed, including source IPs, target domains, GeoIP data, ASN information, and traffic volume metrics for threat intelligence.
Real-time Analytics
Data is processed and visualized in real-time, providing insights into attack patterns, geographic distribution, and network sources of malicious traffic.
