Who we are
Pakistan Honeynet Project is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization dedicated to Honeynet research.
Our goal is to learn and raise awareness about the motives and tactics of the Black Hat community targeting Pakistan’s networks. We aim to share and dissipate knowledge about the various tools and hacker practices in use on the Internet today. In this way, we can serve the federal government, the private sector, state and local governments and higher education establishments countrywide.
The project is based on principles and guidelines given by the Honeynet Project [www.honeynet.org], and it is a part of the Honeynet Research Project’s Alliance [www.honeynet.org/alliance].
What we do
We deploy Honeynet(s), all over Pakistan, based on the principles and guidelines given by the Honeynet Project [www.honeynet.org].
What we hope to learn
Our aim is to gain and provide information about security threats and vulnerabilities active in the wild on our networks, to learn the tools, tactics, and motives of the Black Hat community and to share this knowledge with the community. This project will help us issue early warnings related to exploit threats, virus, crime and terrorist attacks to the government and private IT sector. We hope that this research will help us to better secure and defend our resources.
