dosguard32 - ESP32 DoS attack filter

This experimental project aims to filter DoS attacks on ESP32 applications using a deep learning model to detect malicious packets. The project closely adheres to the structure established by T800.

Usage

Running the UDP Server example

1. Install ESP-IDF and set up the environment variables
2. Run idf.py menuconfig, go to Example Connection Configuration and set up your WiFi SSID and password
3. Run idf.py set-target esp32, then idf.py build and finally idf.py -p PORT flash monitor; if you're on linux you can use ls /dev/tty* to find the serial USB port name
4. To send traffic to the server run the legitimate_udp_traffic.py or the malicious_udp_traffic.py scripts

Using dosguard32 on your ESP32 application

1. Add the components folder to the set() of your CMakeLists.txt file

2. On the main .c file add the dosguard32 configuration

   #include "dosguard32.h" ... dosguard32_config_t config = { .dense_nn = nn, .mode = UDP };

   dosguard32_init(config);
