Firewall and Intrusion Detection System (IDS) Demo

Introduction

The goal of this project is to demonstrate cybersecurity defenses of enterprise networks by implementing and evaluating firewall configurations and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS).

Terminal Output

Features

  • Firewall Configuration: A firewall to control and monitor incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predefined security rules.

  • Intrusion Detection System (IDS): An IDS to detect and respond to potential security threats and attacks within the network.

  • Rate Limiting: Rate limiting to control the number of requests from clients and prevent abuse of server resources.

  • Client Tracking: Tracks client activity and access patterns to identify suspicious behavior and potential security threats.

  • Error Handling: Redirects clients to error pages or return appropriate status codes to handle blocked access or detected security threats.

Usage

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/blakley/Firewall-And-IDS.git

Installation

Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the application:

python3 server.py

Access the application in your web browser:

http://localhost:9000/

Configuration Notes

  • Firewall Rules: Customize firewall rules in firewall_config.json to define allowed and denied traffic patterns.

  • Intrusion Detection System: Configure IDS rules and thresholds in ids_config.json to detect and respond to security threats.

  • Rate Limiting: Adjust rate limiting parameters in server.py to control the maximum number of requests from clients.
