ZERO-NOISE: Agentic SOC-in-a-Box

Real-time Threat Intelligence & Analysis Pipeline

A powerful Security Operations Center (SOC) dashboard powered by AMD-optimized modular agentic architecture. ZERO-NOISE intelligently analyzes massive log volumes to identify and present only critical anomalies and security threats.

---

Features

• Real-Time Threat Detection: Automatically scans and analyzes security logs in real-time
• Anomaly Filtering: Processes thousands of logs but displays only the anomalous incidents (0.42% detection rate)
• Risk Scoring: Automatically categorizes threats as CRITICAL (🔴), MEDIUM (🟠), or LOW (🟢)
• Agentic AI Analysis:
  • Agent 1 (Parser): Extracts and parses security events from logs
  • Agent 2 (Analyst): Performs intelligent threat analysis and recommendations
• Live Log Scanning: Visual indicator showing log processing progress
• Professional Dashboard: Modern dark-mode UI with gradient effects and smooth animations
• Incident Intelligence Feed: Displays detailed threat information with:
  • Attack vector details
  • Attacker IP addresses
  • Threat summaries
  • Security recommendations

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8+
• pip package manager

Installation

1. Clone or navigate to the project directory:

   cd amd-hackathon
   

2. Create a virtual environment (optional but recommended):

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
   

3. Install required dependencies:

   pip install streamlit
   

Running the Application

Start the Streamlit dashboard:

streamlit run app.py

The application will open in your default browser at http://localhost:8501

📊 Dashboard Overview

Status Metrics

• System Status: Real-time protection status
• Latency: Average response time for threat analysis

Log Analysis Panel (Right Sidebar)

• Total Logs: Shows scanning progress (0-32 logs)
• Anomalies Found: Number of threats detected
• Progress Bar: Visual representation of scan completion
• Scan Status: Real-time percentage indicator

Incident Intelligence Feed (Main Area)

Displays detected threats with:

• Threat Title: Type of attack (SQL Injection, XSS, etc.)
• Severity Badge: CRITICAL 🔴 | MEDIUM 🟠 | LOW 🟢
• Attacker IP: Source IP address of the attack
• Summary: Detailed description of the attack
• Recommendation: Security remediation steps

---

🔧 Customization

Adjusting Scan Speed

Edit the delay values in app.py:

time.sleep(0.5)  # Log counter increment
time.sleep(2)    # Incident display delay

### Threat Name (Risk Score: X)
**Attacker IP:** IP_ADDRESS
**Summary:** Description of the threat
**Recommendation:** Security recommendations
---

Modifying Risk Score Thresholds

Edit the threat classification in app.py:

if risk_score >= 8:      # CRITICAL
    threat_class = "threat-high"
elif risk_score >= 5:    # HIGH
    threat_class = "threat-medium"
else:                    # LOW
    threat_class = "threat-low"

---

🎨 UI/UX Highlights

• Professional Dark Theme: Blue/purple gradient aesthetic
• Responsive Design: Optimized for various screen sizes
• Smooth Animations: Hover effects and transitions
• Real-time Updates: Dynamic counter and progress indicators
• Glass Morphism: Modern backdrop blur effects on panels
• Typography: Inter font for UI, IBM Plex Mono for code/specs

---

🔐 Security Features

• Qwen2-7B Parser: AI-powered event extraction
• Qwen2-7B Analyst: Intelligent threat analysis
• AMD MI300X Optimization: GPU-accelerated inference
• Risk Scoring System: Automated severity classification

---

📈 Performance

• Scan Rate: Up to 0.5 second per log update
• Detection Time: 2-3 seconds per threat analysis
• Memory Efficient: Handles 32+ logs per scan cycle
• GPU Optimized: Leverages AMD MI300X for inference

---

🛠️ Troubleshooting

Issue: App doesn't load

• Ensure Streamlit is installed: pip install streamlit
• Check that FINAL_REPORT.md exists in the project directory

Issue: Incidents not displaying

• Verify FINAL_REPORT.md format matches the expected structure
• Check that incidents are separated by ---

Issue: Slow performance

• Reduce the number of incidents in FINAL_REPORT.md
• Increase the time.sleep() values to slow down updates
