🥷 Operational Security (OPSEC)

Siyarix includes some basic OPSECManager and StealthEngine features to help configure your tools for quieter scans when doing authorized testing.

Important

These OPSEC features are meant for authorized engagements to avoid setting off noisy alerts while you work.

🛡️ Core OPSEC Controls

🧅 TOR Routing

You can route outbound Siyarix connections (including HTTP/HTTPS tool traffic) through TOR:

siyarix config set proxy socks5://127.0.0.1:9050

🔒 DNS over HTTPS (DoH)

To use encrypted DNS queries:

siyarix config set proxy dns+https://dns.cloudflare.com/dns-query

⏱️ Traffic Jitter

Add simple jitter to your requests:

[jitter]
enabled = true
min_delay = 1.0
max_delay = 5.0

🎭 User-Agent Rotation

Siyarix can cycle through browser profiles:

client_profile = "desktop_chrome"
# Other options: desktop_firefox, android_mobile, ios_safari

🐌 Request Pacing

Control your scanning speed to avoid tripping basic rate limits:

[pacing]
requests_per_second = 2.0
burst_size = 5

👻 The Stealth Engine (stealth.py)

The StealthEngine bundles these settings into easy "Evasion Levels".

Level Jitter UA Rotation DoH Pacing
None ❌ ❌ ❌ ❌
Light ✅ ✅ ✅ ✅
Medium ✅ ✅ ✅ ✅
Heavy ✅ ✅ ✅ ✅

🎯 Decoy Traffic

Siyarix can optionally generate background "noise" by browsing benign websites.

[decoy]
enabled = true
targets = ["https://example.com", "https://google.com"]
interval_seconds = 30

🔥 Session Burning

When you're done, you can clear your local session logs and history.

siyarix session-log --clear

📜 Audit Logging Note

Warning

While Siyarix attempts to be quiet on the network, it logs your actions locally in the audit log for your own accountability.

siyarix audit-log         # View your local audit trail
siyarix audit-log verify  # Verify log integrity

Note

👋 Welcome to Siyarix! This is a personal passion project built by a single developer. It's currently under active development and growing fast. Expect rough edges, but lots of love! ❤️

📖 Key Terminology

As you read through the documentation, you might encounter some specific terms. Here is a quick cheat sheet:

Term What It Means
Provider The backend AI engine powering Siyarix (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama).
Tool A traditional security executable installed on your system (e.g., nmap, nuclei).
Plan A step-by-step sequence of tool commands intelligently generated by the AI.
Workflow A hardcoded, predefined execution path (usually defined in YAML/JSON) that doesn't require AI generation.
Persona A specialized behavioral profile given to the AI (e.g., instructing it to act specifically as a "Network Recon Specialist").
Knowledge Graph Siyarix's internal memory where it stores findings (like IP addresses, open ports) to contextually inform future steps.
