Topic: Simple Threat Detection System
0.1 Introduction:
The Simple Threat Detection System helps keep a network safe by
finding and responding to security threats in real time. It uses Java to analyze network traffic, JavaScript and PHP to create a web interface for alerts and management, and React Native for a mobile app to monitor threats. This project aims to quickly identify and deal with potential dangers like malware or unauthorized access, ensuring the network stays secure.
0.2 Project Objectives
1. Identify potential security threats such as malware and unauthorized
access.
2. Monitor network traffic in real-time.
3. Respond to threats by alerting administrators and taking actions.
0.3 Technology Stack
Programming Languages JavaScript: For client-side scripting and server-side development. PHP: For web-based application development. Platforms and Frameworks Node.js: For server-side programming with JavaScript. React: For the web interface. React Native: For the mobile app. Apache Server: For hosting PHP applications. MySQL: For the database. Socket.io: For real-time communication. 0.4 System Components 1. Network Traffic Analyzer Function: Captures and analyses network packets. Tool: Java (using libraries like JNetPcap for packet capture). Code Example: import org.jnetpcap.Pcap; import org.jnetpcap.PcapIf; import org.jnetpcap.packet.PcapPacket; import org.jnetpcap.packet.PcapPacketHandler;
Function: Identifies threats using rules and algorithms. Tool: Custom Java code for detection logic. Code Example: public class ThreatDetector { public boolean detectThreat(PcapPacket packet) { // Simple threat detection logic if (packet.getHeader(ip).source().equals("malicious_ip_address")) { return true; } return false; } } 3. Alert System Function: Sends alerts to the web and mobile interfaces. Tool: Java Servlets and Socket.io for real-time communication. Code Example: import javax.servlet.*; import javax.servlet.http.*; import java.io.IOException;
public class AlertServlet extends HttpServlet {
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException { // Send alert to connected clients String alertMessage = request.getParameter("alertMessage"); // Use WebSocket or similar to broadcast the message } }
1. Set up the development environment: Install Node.js, React, Java Development Kit (JDK), MySQL, and necessary libraries. 2. Develop the network traffic analyzer: Use Java for packet capturing and analysis. 3. Build the threat detection engine: Write custom Java code to detect threats. 4. Create the alert system: Develop servlets and integrate Socket.io for real-time alerts. 5. Implement the response mechanism: Write Java code to take actions like blocking IPs. 6. Develop a mobile application: Use React Native to create an app for monitoring and managing the system. 7. Create a PHP-based web dashboard: Use PHP to develop a web-based management dashboard. 8. Test the system: Ensure it accurately detects threats and responds effectively. 9. Document the project: Write comprehensive documentation covering all aspects of the project.
0.6 Integration with Subjects
Operating System: Understanding of OS-level packet handling and command execution. Client-side Scripting (JavaScript): Building interactive front-end components. Advanced Java Programming: Developing robust back-end systems and threat detection logic. Mobile Application Development: Creating mobile apps for system monitoring. Network and Information Security: Implementing secure threat detection and response mechanisms. Web Based Application Development using PHP: Building a web dashboard for system management. Cloud Computing: Optionally deploy the system on cloud platforms for scalability and availability. Management: Planning, executing, and documenting the project. 0.7 Conclusion The Simple Threat Detection System project demonstrates a robust and efficient approach to identifying, monitoring, and responding to network security threats. Utilizing Java for packet analysis and threat detection, JavaScript and PHP for real-time alerts and web management, and React Native for mobile monitoring, this system ensures comprehensive security coverage. The integration of these technologies results in a well-rounded, effective solution that enhances network security through real-time detection and proactive threat response.
