Endlessh is an #SSH tarpit that very slowly sends an endless, random SSH banner. It keeps SSH clients locked up for hours or even days at a time. The purpose is to put your real SSH server on another port and then let the script kiddies get stuck in this tarpit instead of bothering a real server.

#ssh


A while ago I joked that I expected us to handle storage media full of noise in the “near” #QuantumComputer future. At least current storage media is large enough to exchange one time pads in quite a comfortable way, we‘re just missing #otp protocols for #ssh (and #tls).

(I‘m imagining this to be similar to the #causalChannel @cstross used for FTL communication in his iron sunrise universe.)
