Artillery 0.5.1 Alpha released
Artillery: Powefull Linux Protection tool
Artillery is a combination of a honeypot, file monitoring and integrity, alerting, and brute force prevention tool. It is light weight, has multiple different methods for detecting specific attacks and eventually will also notify you of insecure nix configurations. Artillery is coded in python.
“Artillery is a combination of a honeypot, monitoring tool, and alerting system. Eventually this will evolve into a hardening monitoring platform as well to detect insecure configurations from nix systems.”

How does Artillery works
As per above example If anyone decides to port scan or touch those ports, they are blacklisted immediately and permanently. It’s multi-threaded and can handle as many connections thrown at it. Author did some testing on his own site. And results where amazing. In the first 3 days, it blocked over 387 individuals.
In addition to the monitoring, it will also monitor file integrity leveraging sha-512 database where it keeps track of all system files and if anything changes, will email you with the change. By default it monitors /etc/ and /var/www. Artillery also monitors the SSH logs, and the event of abrute force attack, blacklists the host forever.
By default artillery installs in /var/artillery and the config file is located at /var/artillery/config
