Your Firewall Can’t Block Port 443
Your customers need it open. So do attackers. TarPit.pro identifies who's who, and blocks attackers from everything, including your live services.
# Your firewall rules:
port 22 OPEN ← attackers try SSH
port 80 OPEN ← attackers try HTTP
port 443 OPEN ← attackers try HTTPS
port * DROP ← everything else blocked
Attackers have full access to your
live services. Firewall can't help.
# Attacker scans your server:
→ :3306 MySQL FAKE BANNED
# Now blocked from ALL ports:
port 22 BLOCKED ← can't reach SSH
port 80 BLOCKED ← can't reach HTTP
port 443 BLOCKED ← can't reach HTTPS
Attacker can't see your server.
Customers connect normally.
Nobody with good intentions connects uninvited to a fake MySQL on port 3306. Anyone who does is not a customer. Ban them from everything, including the ports your customers need open.
One Dashboard. Every Server. Every Attack.
Real-time attack map, detailed logs with payloads, and fleet-wide ban management. The screenshots your clients will love in monthly reports.


The Math Is Simple
SSH, MySQL, Redis, Telnet, RDP, VNC, SMB, all fake, all with realistic banners
Scanners probe sequentially. With 30 fake ports and 2-3 real ones, they almost always hit a trap first
No customer ever connects to a fake MySQL on port 3306. Every connection is malicious. Every ban is correct.
Your firewall protects closed ports. TarPit.pro protects the open ones, by making sure only customers can reach them.
Real Data from Real Honeypots
5 servers, 3 regions, 9 days. Every one of these IPs would have had full access to our live services.
Most Attacked Ports
The same IPs that hit these fake ports would have tried your real ones next.
Attack Types
53% is brute-force. Not sophisticated, just relentless. And it only takes one success.

Not a Replacement. A Filter.
Your firewall, fail2ban, WAF, they all still do their job. TarPit.pro makes them better by filtering out attackers before they reach any of it.

With TarPit.pro
Attacker never reaches SSH, HTTP, or anything real. Zero attempts on live services.
