AI-Powered Network Security Platform

Hack the Bay 2026 • Built in 6 hours

An AI-powered network security platform that maps devices, scores risk in real time, and lets you interact with your network like a security analyst. ARP scanning for device discovery, Nmap for port/service analysis, OS fingerprinting, traceroute, deterministic risk scoring with CVE correlation, and a RAG-based AI system for natural language interaction.

Raven

AI-Powered Malware Analysis Platform

HackUSF 2026 • Built in under 24 hours

A sandbox malware analysis platform that safely detonates suspicious files inside a Docker container and uses multiple AI agents — Static Analyst, Behavioral Threat Modeler, and Adversarial Critic — to autonomously investigate. Agents debate and reach consensus to generate risk scoring, IOC extraction, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, and step-by-step remediation. Malware never leaves the container.
