GSOC 2020 PROJECT SUMMARY: HosTaGe

HosTaGe: a mobile honeypot

Why I choose this project

I am passionate about Network Security, Cybersecurity, and programming, and I wanted to get involved with a project that includes it all.

HosTaGe project drew my attention because I found it really fascinating the idea that any android device can be turned into a honeypot and be transformed into an essential tool for attack detection.

I wanted to work on this project because it allowed me to improve this new generation of mobile honeypots and consequently improve the security of the internet in general.
