NetSentinel is a DevSecOps-oriented monitoring and security project designed to provide visibility into system activity, network exposure, and security-related events.
The goal of this project is to evolve from a simple monitoring tool into a lightweight security monitoring platform capable of collecting, analyzing, and correlating information from multiple systems.
- Port scanning and open port discovery
- System log collection and parsing
- System metrics monitoring (CPU, RAM, Disk, etc.)
- Data persistence using a local database
NetSentinel is being developed incrementally with a focus on learning and applying DevSecOps concepts, Linux administration, automation, and security monitoring.
Planned features include:
- Real-time monitoring and data collection
- Multi-host monitoring architecture
- Security event detection and analysis
- Alerting and notification system
- Containerized deployment with Docker
- Centralized data storage and management
- Dashboard and visualization components
- Automated security checks and threat detection
Current and planned technologies include:
- Python
- Linux
- SQLite / PostgreSQL
- Docker
- FastAPI
- Git & GitHub
- DevSecOps and Security Monitoring concepts
- Port Scanner
- Log Parser
- System Metrics Collection
- Database Integration
- Real-time Monitoring
- Threat Detection Engine
- Alerting System
- Multi-threaded Data Collection
- Multi-host Monitoring
- Docker Deployment
- Centralized Data Management
- Dashboard Development
- DevSecOps Integrations

🚧 NetSentinel is currently under active development.
The current version represents the foundation of a larger DevSecOps monitoring platform that will continue to evolve with new features, integrations, and security-focused capabilities.
This project is primarily developed as a learning journey into:
- DevSecOps
- Linux System Administration
- Security Monitoring
- Automation
- Python Development
- Infrastructure and Cloud Technologies
While educational in nature, the goal is to build a practical and production-inspired monitoring solution.
