🎯 Overwatch - AI-Powered Penetration Testing Platform

An intelligent, automated penetration testing platform designed to compete with commercial tools like XBow, while offering multi-domain coverage, low false positives, and self-hosted deployment.

🚀 Features

• ✅ Automated Network Scanning - Nmap integration with async execution
• ✅ REST API - FastAPI with auto-generated Swagger documentation
• ✅ Distributed Processing - Celery workers for parallel task execution
• ✅ Real-time Monitoring - Flower dashboard for job tracking
• ✅ Scope Enforcement - Never scan unauthorized targets
• ✅ Database Persistence - PostgreSQL with async SQLAlchemy
• ✅ Security First - Command injection protection, input validation

📦 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Docker Desktop
• Python 3.11+
• Git

Installation

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/Azi023/overwatch.git
cd overwatch

# Run automated setup
./setup.sh

# Start services
docker-compose up -d

# Activate environment
source venv/bin/activate

# Start API (Terminal 1)
poetry run uvicorn src.overwatch_core.api.main:app --reload --port 8000

# Start worker (Terminal 2)
./scripts/start_worker.sh

First Scan

# Create target
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/targets/ \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "Test", "ip_address": "127.0.0.1", "allowed_hosts": ["127.0.0.1"]}'

# Run scan
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/scans/ \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"target_id": 1, "scan_type": "nmap", "config": {"profile": "balanced"}}'

# View results
