🚀 Quick Start

1. Prerequisites

• Python 3.8+
• Hugging Face account (free)
• 4GB RAM minimum

2. Installation

# Navigate to backend
cd backend

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate  # Windows
# source venv/bin/activate  # Linux/Mac

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configuration

# Copy environment template
copy .env.example .env  # Windows
# cp .env.example .env  # Linux/Mac


**Required in `.env`:**
```bash
HF_API_TOKEN=hf_YourActualTokenHere

Optional - Email Verification (Recommended):

SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
SMTP_PORT=587
SMTP_USER=your_email@gmail.com
SMTP_PASSWORD=your_app_password

🔍 Features Explained

Red-Team AI

Analyzes threats from an attacker's perspective:

• Attack Goal: What the attacker wants to achieve
• Victim Profile: Who is being targeted
• Psychological Tactics: Manipulation techniques used
• Exploitation Chain: Step-by-step attack sequence
• Next Step: Predicted attacker actions

Cyber DNA Fingerprinting

Creates unique "DNA" for each threat:

• 6 Feature Scores: Linguistic, urgency, brand impersonation, obfuscation, visual, intent
• 384-dim Embedding: Semantic similarity vector
• DNA Hash: Unique fingerprint identifier
• Similarity Matching: Find related threats (cosine similarity)
• Same-Actor Probability: Likelihood threats share same source

Fraud Recovery Assistant ⭐ NEW

AI-powered recovery guidance for cyber threat victims:

• Personalized Recovery Plans: Tailored to specific threat type (phishing, scam, malware, identity theft, financial fraud)
• Step-by-Step Guidance: Clear, actionable recovery steps with priority levels
• Progress Tracking: Mark steps as completed, in-progress, or skipped
• AI-Powered Advice: Context-aware recommendations using HuggingFace models
• Formal Reports: Generate reports for law enforcement and financial institutions
• Educational Resources: Prevention tips and emergency contacts
• Urgency Prioritization: Critical, high, medium, low based on threat severity
• Seamless Integration: Direct access from threat detection reports

See FRAUD_RECOVERY_ASSISTANT.md for complete documentation.

Unified Logging

Every scan is logged to backend/logs/:

• scans.jsonl - Complete scan records
• cyber_dna.jsonl - DNA fingerprints for matching
• redteam_analysis.jsonl - Attack analysis reports
• daily_stats.json - Aggregated metrics

---

⚡ Performance

Operation	Latency
Text scan	<2s
Text + Red-Team + DNA	<5s
URL scan	<2s
Image scan	<4s
Similarity search	<1s

Optimizations:

• ✅ Async API calls (aiohttp)
• ✅ Response caching (300s TTL)
• ✅ Batch processing support
• ✅ Lightweight models
• ✅ In-memory embedding cache

🧪 Testing

Manual Test

# Test text scan
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/scan/text \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"text": "URGENT! Your account will be suspended in 24 hours!"}'

# Test URL scan
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/scan/url \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"url": "http://paypa1-verify.com/login"}'

# Check stats
curl http://localhost:8000/stats

Python Client

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "http://localhost:8000/scan/text",
    json={"text": "Congratulations! You won $1,000,000!"}
)
result = response.json()
print(f"Threat: {result['detection']['is_threat']}")
print(f"Attack Goal: {result['redteam_analysis']['attack_goal']}")

🐛 Troubleshooting

"Model is loading"

Solution: Wait 20s and retry. HuggingFace models warm up on first request.

"401 Unauthorized"

Solution: Check HF_API_TOKEN in .env file.

"ModuleNotFoundError"

Solution: pip install -r requirements.txt

Slow responses

Solutions:

• Check HuggingFace API status
• Reduce HF_TIMEOUT in .env
• Temporarily disable Red-Team: "enable_redteam": false
