Could you build this?
Partial Building the analytics dashboard is straightforward, but maintaining an active distributed network of realistic honeypots across 160 countries to collect nearly a million attack telemetry events requires operational infrastructure and threat intel engineering.
What it would actually take: A distributed fleet of low-interaction and medium-interaction honeypots (e.g., Cowrie, Dionaea) deployed across multi-cloud VPS providers globally, feeding structured attack logs via FluentBit/Kafka to a central ingestion pipeline. The backend aggregates events in ClickHouse or Elasticsearch, with a web dashboard visualizing geographic attacks and IP reputations. The main difficulty is securing, maintaining, and funding a broad multi-region honeynet while preventing abuse and managing sensor sprawl.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a analytics & bi tool for Legal yet.
