# NAD (Necessity Anti-DDoS) project

## Overview

NAD is a DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) detection and mitigation appliance. Our codebase is mainly NodeJS, with modules that can be written in other languages as well.

## Usage

1. Make sure you are running an MySQL database primed with contents from: /db/db.mysql

2. Run the NAD node.
```
git clone https://github.com/radicallyopensecurity/anti-ddos
cd nad
./nad
```
3. Open http://localhost:1111 to access the REST API. We use only GET functions for ease of use.

4. You can also access all REST functions from the command-line in another terminal, once NAD is running.

### Command examples:
```
./nad /sensor/MX480/read
```

```
./nad /proc/1480417287318968
```

## More information

NAD works with a bus in the form of a REST API, and database module. All actions are handled through a processor and scheduler. 
Every command gived to a NAD module will return a JSON object containing the process number of the action that has been queued into the scheduler. To see the data in that process, you can read it out using the /proc/PROCESS_NUMBER path.
This makes asynchronous requests possible, and by reading the process progress variable, a front-end can be updated as to the real status of a process.

## Troubleshooting

What is this supposed to do?
 The current prototype scans an MX480 router to get network traffic data to calculate thresholds.
 
 Can I use my own version of NodeJS?
 We have included a 32-bit and 64-bit version of NodeJS to make things work out of the box, but you can certainly use your own. Please amend the symbolic link if necessary in your case.

What if I get the error "Error: ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR: Access denied for user 'ddos-monitor'@'localhost'"?
 Make sure your are running an MySQL database primed with contents, and that you configure access to it in hybridd.conf.
