projectSlam by Michael Banks.

From the webpage:

Project Slam is an initiative to utilize open source programs, operating systems and tools to aid in defending against nefarious adversaries. The overall focus is to research adversary’s behavior and utilize the data that can be captured to generate wordlists, blacklists, and expose methodologies of various threat actors that can be provided back to the public in a meaningful and useful way…

Partial data for 2016 includes:

A medium interaction honeypot was deployed with a focus on usernames and passwords. While attackers were attacking the honeypot, projectSlam was sucking up the attempts to generate a wordlist of what NOT to make your passwords.

Imagine that! Instead of hoarding information from a vulnerable public, or revealing only the top 10/20 worst passwords, Michael is posting the passwords hackers are looking for online!

Looking forward to more results from projectSlam and cybersecurity projects that enable the public to protect themselves!

Contrast a national network of Trojan dispensers versus Trojan representatives catching couples in need of a condom.

Which one is more effective?

Promote cyberself-protection today!
