Built a lightweight web application firewall that detects and blocks common web vulnerabilities, including SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and directory traversal attacks, improving the security posture of web applications
Built using Python and Flask, the system uses a regex-based rule engine to inspect HTTP requests, log threats, and respond in real-time. The project was tested using Burp Suite to simulate real-world attack scenarios and fine-tune detection accuracy.
Cerberrus_WAF enhances web application security by providing custom protection logic tailored to common vulnerabilities.
