Could you build this?

Partial The mock UI and synthetic demo workflows can be vibe coded, but an actual production honeypot/deception gateway that dynamically diverts real traffic across SSH, Postgres, and HTTP requires complex systems and network security programming.

What it would actually take: A real defensive deception runtime needs reverse-proxy middleware (e.g., Envoy/eBPF-based traffic interception) that inspects sessions and transparently reroutes traffic to isolated sandbox containers (Firecracker microVMs or Docker). It requires stateful protocol emulation for SSH, PostgreSQL, and HTTP, alongside cryptographic ticket minting and revocation gates. Deep domain expertise in network protocols, container isolation, and cybersecurity exploit mitigation is required.
