# Sentinel
Sentinel is a **machine learning-powered Intrusion Detection System (IDS)** designed for **real-time threat detection**. It combines multiple components for efficient monitoring and alerting:
- **Sniffer Module** (C++): Captures and inspects network traffic.
- **Backend Server** (Golang): Manages data flow and communication.
- **Frontend Interface** (React + Vite): Intuitive dashboard for threat visualization.
- **Machine Learning Module** (Python): AI-driven threat detection.
- **Notification System**: Instantly alerts users about detected threats.
---

---
## Key Features
- **Network Sniffer**: Monitors and analyzes live network traffic.
- **AI-Powered Detection**: Uses machine learning to identify threats.
- **User-Friendly Dashboard**: Visualize and inspect security events easily.
- **Real-Time Alerts**: Get instant notifications on potential threats.
- **Modular & Scalable**: Built with separate components for flexibility.
