Welcome to the Hermes Fullstack GitHub Organization! This space is dedicated to our fourth-year (tek 4) cybersecurity Capstone project at EPITECH Brussels. Our mission is to create an educational cybersecurity platform that introduces junior pentesters and students to real-world web security practices—aligned with the OWASP ASVS Level 1 framework.
Hermes Fullstack is a comprehensive cybersecurity training and vulnerability demonstration platform, developed by a team of four EPITECH Brussels students. Our key objectives:
-
Provide Hands-On Experience
Practice identifying and exploiting common web vulnerabilities in a safe, controlled environment. -
Demonstrate OWASP ASVS Level 1 Flaws
Show typical pitfalls in areas like authentication, session management, and access control. -
Offer Practical Tools
Includes a Python-based web scanner and a user-friendly Ionic/React dashboard to manage scans, view reports, and learn about core security concepts.
For detailed setup, usage instructions, and component breakdown, visit the Hermes Fullstack repository.
Important: Parts of this project are intentionally vulnerable. Do not deploy to production or any public-facing servers.
-
Web Scanner
- Python-based
- Asynchronous capabilities
- Targets OWASP ASVS Level 1 vulnerabilities
-
Weak Website
- Frontend: React (TypeScript), demonstrating insecure authentication, session management flaws, etc.
- Backend: NestJS + TypeORM, intentionally riddled with vulnerabilities.
-
GUI
- Ionic/React dashboard
- Configure and launch scans, monitor results, and explore educational resources
-
Containerization
- Docker and Docker Compose for unified, portable deployment
This organization exists exclusively for the Hermes Fullstack project. It’s a dedicated space where:
- Team members coordinate development and track issues.
- Community members can observe and contribute to an educational cybersecurity project.
- EPITECH Brussels faculty can evaluate our Capstone progress and maintain academic oversight.
We’re four EPITECH Brussels students collaborating on this Capstone for our Cybersecurity Certification:
- Student A (GitHub / Email)
- Student B (GitHub / Email)
- Student C (GitHub / Email)
- Student D (GitHub / Email)
