  • A good tar pit will reduce your bandwidth. Tarpits aren’t about shoving useless data at bots; they’re about responding as slow as possible to keep the bot connected for as long as possible while giving it nothing.

    Endlessh accepts the connection and then… does nothing. It doesn’t even actually perform the SSL negotiation. It just very… slowly… sends… an endless preamble, until the bot gives up.

    As I write, my Internet-facing SSH tarpit currently has 27 clients trapped in it. A few of these have been connected for weeks. In one particular spike it had 1,378 clients trapped at once, lasting about 20 hours.
