WOOF

WOOF - Web Operation & Outlier Firewall

A Smart WAF System.

Features:

WOOF detects whether a user is attempting to use an SQL injection vs using a username or a password. It functions off a classification model we developed using the SKLearn library.

Run backend:

$ cd backend && python -m fastapi dev app/main.py

Dependencies can be installed with

$ cd backend && pip3 install .

Run frontend:

$ cd frontend && pnpm i && pnpm run dev 

The frontend should now be hosted at http://localhost:5183

Summary:

WOOF was our submission to the 2025 Cipherhacks hackathon. We learned not to use a monorepo after having conflicts while merging the frontend into the project right before the submission deadline.
