ARTA — Autonomous Red Team Agent

The Challenge

Manual penetration testing is slow and resource-intensive. Security teams need a way to automate the reconnaissance, vulnerability scanning, and reporting phases to identify critical security gaps in minutes, not days.

The Approach

Built a multi-agent orchestration system using Gemini 2.0 Flash to handle the entire offensive pipeline. Developed specialized agents for Recon (Nmap parsing), Vulnerability Analysis (live NVD API integration), and Automated Reporting. Implemented a real-time SSE dashboard in Next.js to monitor the agent's reasoning and tool usage as it scans Metasploitable targets.

The Outcome

Successfully demonstrated an autonomous end-to-end security pipeline during an MLH 8-hour sprint. Delivered a tool that produces severity-ranked findings and professional remediation reports with zero manual intervention.
