🛡️ Sharing Centurion — my solo Windows security project (early access, feedback welcome!)

Hey,

I’ve been building a Windows cybersecurity tool called Centurion. It’s still early access, but I’d love to put it out here and hear what this community thinks.

Real-time network calls view
Central control panel for alerts & logs
Phishing page detection
Process & event tracking
Active defense against C&C & infostealers
Proactive web protection

The idea: turn complex security monitoring into something transparent and useful, both for pros and regular users. No black-box alerts, you see what’s happening and why.

Curious to know:

Does this approach resonate?
What would make it more developer/sysadmin-friendly?
Any features you’d personally love in a tool like this?

Thanks in advance for reading & sharing your thoughts, and happy to answer questions and keep improving Centurion.

If you’re curious, you can take a look at the project here: https://centurion.ciberconsulta.es

Building Centurion, a Windows cybersecurity tool to fight phishing, malware & C2 traffic

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working solo on a Windows cybersecurity project called Centurion, and I wanted to share it here with the community. It’s still in early access, but I believe it can grow into something useful — and I’d love to hear your feedback, ideas... (criticisms are welcome too).

What Centurion does

Network calls view: monitor traffic in real time, so you can spot unusual connections and decide what to allow or block.
Control panel: a central dashboard that shows system health, alerts, logs, and quick actions for managing threats.
Phishing detection: if you land on a phishing page, Centurion flags it immediately and warns the user before data is stolen.
Process & event tracking: every process and system event is logged, so suspicious activity is visible instead of hidden in the background.
Command-and-control defense: Centurion actively cuts communication to known C&C infrastructures and detects infostealers trying to exfiltrate data.
Proactive web protection: it analyzes browsing activity in real time and prevents access to malicious domains before they can do damage.

My goal with Centurion is to make complex security monitoring accessible, so that both security professionals and regular users can understand what’s happening on their systems. Instead of “black box antivirus alerts,” you see clear information and can take action with context.

Right now, I’m just showing it to the world for the first time, and I’m really curious:

Does this approach to security tools make sense?

Are there features you’d love to see in something like this?

What would make it more developer-friendly or sysadmin-friendly?
