Featured thesis · In progress

Dynamic Industrial
Honeypot for ICS/OT

A dynamic industrial environment for observing attacks and tracing how they affect a simulated plant.

My responsibility

Python middleware development
and AI integration

Developed by a three-person thesis team, with a dedicated workstream for my Python middleware and AI integration.

  • Python
  • Conpot
  • ICS/OT
  • AI integration
Explore my contribution
  • Developing middleware between protocol-facing interfaces and shared plant state, including command validation and persistent updates.
  • Integrating a background AI process with a virtual boiler model: temperature, pressure, water level and two pumps.
  • Keeping actual process state separate from spoofed sensor readings so changes can be investigated.

System context: Modbus/TCP and Siemens S7comm, structured attacker-action logs, an HMI dashboard and ELK analysis. These describe the wider team system.

Multi-node honeypot security lab environment

Cybersecurity / Network lab

Multi-node honeynet

An isolated environment for controlled attack simulations, intrusion detection and analysis of attacker behaviour.

  • Cowrie
  • Suricata
  • OpenWrt
Implementation details
  • Designed network topology and isolation for SSH/Telnet honeypot emulation.
  • Ran authorised scans and brute-force simulations with Nmap and Hydra; inspected traffic and intrusion events.
  • Analysed attacker behaviour and contributed to dashboard visualisation.

This educational honeynet is separate from my industrial honeypot thesis.

03 / About & toolkit

Software, systems
& security.

My experience combines frontend development, Python integrations, and hands-on cybersecurity and IoT research. I enjoy connecting usable interfaces with the systems behind them.

In my three-person thesis team, I am responsible for Python middleware development and AI integration for a dynamic industrial honeypot. I am also interested in DevOps and cloud engineering roles.
