ShieldNode: AI-Powered Micro-Firewall for IoT & Smart Homes
A lightweight, AI-driven security layer designed to detect and block hardware-level exploits and cyber attacks on smart home networks.
Posted by mohamed elsayed
- Smart home devices (like IP cameras, microcontrollers, and routers) are highly vulnerable to cyber attacks. Hackers easily exploit weak firmware to pivot into local networks, causing massive data leaks and privacy violations
- ShieldNode is a plug-and-play micro-firewall that monitors IoT network traffic using machine learning. It automatically fingerprints connected hardware, analyzes traffic patterns, and isolates compromised devices instantly before a hacker can breach the entire network
