# CyberGuard Africa A cybersecurity education, tools, incident-reporting, and community platform for individuals, businesses, and students across Africa. ## Running locally ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt python app.py ``` Then open localhost The SQLite database (`cyberguard.db`) is created automatically on first run with three tables: `messages`, `incident_reports`, and `community_tips`. ## Pages - `/` — Home - `/about` — About - `/learn` — Education hub (6 topics: phishing, passwords, malware, social engineering, mobile safety, business security) - `/tools` — Password strength checker + interactive cyber safety quiz - `/report` — Incident reporting form - `/community` — Community tips wall (submissions are reviewed before appearing publicly) - `/contact` — Contact form - `/admin/login` — Admin login - `/admin` — Admin dashboard (contact messages, incident reports, community tip moderation) ## Admin access Default admin password: `CyberGuard2026!` **Before deploying this publicly, set real environment variables** so the defaults in the code are not used: ```bash export SECRET_KEY="a-long-random-string" export ADMIN_PASSWORD="a-strong-password-only-you-know" ``` The admin dashboard was previously open to anyone — it's now password-protected using a hashed password check and Flask sessions. ## Notes - The password strength checker runs entirely in the browser; nothing is sent to the server. - The incident report form is for guidance and record-keeping, not emergency response — the page reminds users to contact their bank or police directly for urgent cases. - Community tips require admin approval (`/admin` → Community Tips tab) before they're publicly visible, to prevent spam.
