    Hello everyone I wanted to share a project I've been working on that I think you'll find really interesting. It's called Beelzebub, an open-source honeypot framework that uses LLMs to create incredibly realistic and dynamic deception environments. By integrating LLMs, it can mimic entire operating systems and interact with attackers in a super convincing way. Imagine an SSH honeypot where the LLM provides plausible responses to commands, even though nothing is actually executed on a real system. The goal is to keep attackers engaged for as long as possible, diverting them from your real…

    Hey everyone, After watching MegaLag’s investigation into the Honey affiliate scam, I decided to create something better. I’m 18, an open-source enthusiast, and this is my first big project that’s actually getting some attention. It's called Syrup, a fully open-source and transparent alternative to Honey. My goal is to make a browser extension that’s honest, ethical, and user-focused, unlike the Honey. I’m still figuring things out, from maintaining the project on GitHub to covering future costs for a custom marketing website. It’s not easy balancing all this as a university student, but I’m…
