🛡 Cyber Risk Intelligence Platform
A Unified Cyber Risk Intelligence Dashboard for Network Assessment, Human Risk Evaluation, and Security Awareness
Executive Summary
The Cyber Risk Intelligence Platform is a Flask-based cybersecurity dashboard developed to provide a unified view of both technical and human cyber risks.
Instead of relying on multiple standalone tools, the platform combines network scanning, email breach detection, phishing awareness, cyber risk scoring, historical reporting, and security recommendations into a single interface.
The objective of the project is to help users quickly understand their overall security posture while promoting proactive cybersecurity practices.

Project Preview
Project Overview
Modern organizations often rely on multiple security tools to evaluate different aspects of cybersecurity.
The Cyber Risk Intelligence Platform consolidates multiple security assessment techniques into one dashboard, enabling users to evaluate technical vulnerabilities and human cyber risks from a single interface.
The platform performs automated analysis, generates a Cyber Risk Score, stores assessment history, and provides practical recommendations to improve overall security posture.
Problem Statement
Security assessments are often performed using multiple independent tools. Network scanners identify exposed services, breach-checking platforms verify compromised accounts, and phishing awareness is usually evaluated separately.
Switching between these tools makes it difficult to obtain a consolidated view of an individual's or organization's overall cyber risk.
The Cyber Risk Intelligence Platform addresses this challenge by integrating multiple security assessment techniques into a single dashboard, allowing users to perform a comprehensive security evaluation from one interface.
System Architecture
The platform follows a modular workflow where each component performs a dedicated security task before contributing to the final Cyber Risk Score.

Core Features
🌐 Network Discovery
- Automatically detects the local system IP address.
- Performs network scanning using Nmap.
- Identifies open ports and running services.
- Collects information required for risk analysis.
🔍 Service Enumeration
The platform analyses discovered services and displays:
- Open TCP ports
- Running services
- Potential attack surface
- Security recommendations
This helps users understand which services may require additional hardening.
📧 Email Breach Detection
Users can verify whether an email address has appeared in publicly known data breaches.
This feature increases awareness of compromised credentials and encourages users to strengthen account security.
🎣 Phishing Awareness Assessment
The platform includes a phishing awareness module designed to evaluate user responses during simulated phishing scenarios.
The results contribute to the overall Cyber Risk Score, demonstrating that human behaviour is an important component of cybersecurity.
📊 Cyber Risk Score
Instead of displaying isolated findings, the platform combines multiple security indicators into a single Cyber Risk Score.
The score is calculated using factors such as:
- Open network services
- Email breach status
- Phishing awareness results
- Overall exposure level
The final score is accompanied by a risk classification and actionable recommendations.
📄 Security Reporting
The platform provides:
- Historical scan records
- Risk assessment summaries
- Security recommendations
- Exportable PDF reports
These reports help users track security improvements over time.
