Overview

CyberSentry is an autonomous AI-powered security auditing agent designed for ethical website penetration testing and vulnerability assessment. Powered by NVIDIA NIM running Llama 3.1 70B, it implements a ReAct loop architecture (Think → Act → Observe → Repeat) to intelligently coordinate 8 advanced security scanning tools.

Unlike traditional security scanners, CyberSentry reasons about findings, adapts its approach based on results, and generates professional bug-bounty style security reports with actionable recommendations.

Key Innovation

• Autonomous Decision-Making: Uses Llama 3.1 70B to reason about security findings and adjust scanning strategy
• Real-time Terminal Visualization: Live xterm windows with hacker-themed green-on-black UI
• 8 Integrated Security Tools: Robots/Sitemap, Tech Detection, HTTP Headers, SSL Analysis, Cookie Audit, Directory Fuzzing, CORS Testing, Nmap Scanning
• Professional Reporting: Generates industry-standard security audit reports with CVSS-style severity ratings

🔍 Real Findings

Scan Target: example.com (May 2, 2026)

This is a real security audit performed on the developer's portfolio website. Note: Scan was authorized by the domain owner.

Detailed Findings

[1] Missing Content-Security-Policy (CSP) Header (Medium Severity)

• Risk: Without CSP, the site is vulnerable to XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) attacks
• Finding: Response headers lack Content-Security-Policy directive
• CVSS v3.1: 5.3 (Medium)
• Recommendation: Implement CSP header with strict directives

  Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'
  

[2] Server Header Reveals Technology Stack (Low Severity)

• Risk: Attackers learn site runs on Vercel, enabling targeted attacks
• Finding: Server: Vercel header exposed in HTTP response
• CVSS v3.1: 2.7 (Low)
• Recommendation: Remove or obfuscate server header

  # In Vercel vercel.json
  "headers": [
    {
      "source": "/(.*)",
      "headers": [
        {
          "key": "Server",
          "value": "Web Server"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
  

[3] SSL Certificate Expires Soon (Medium Severity)

• Risk: Service interruption, potential MITM attacks during renewal
• Finding: Certificate valid until June 2, 2026 (30 days remaining)
• CVSS v3.1: 5.9 (Medium)
• Recommendation: Renew certificate immediately (auto-renewal via Vercel)

[4] WordPress Paths Detected (Low Severity)

• Risk: Potential information disclosure; 403 responses leak existence of WP paths
• Finding: Paths detected: /wp-admin, /wp-includes, /wp-content (all return 403)
• CVSS v3.1: 3.1 (Low)
• Recommendation: These are hardened and return 403, which is good. No action needed.

[5] Missing X-Content-Type-Options Header (Low Severity)

• Risk: MIME-type sniffing attacks
• Finding: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff header not present
• Recommendation: Add header to prevent MIME-sniffing

  X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
