A bare-metal ecosystem built in Rust for ultra-low latency network processing, real-time threat detection, and deterministic storage.
- AEGIS: A Layer 4 TCP Proxy utilizing
io_uringand a Thread-per-Core model. It eliminates cross-core lock contention and minimizes syscall overhead. - CELER: A Complex Event Processing (CEP) engine processing ~85 Million Packets/Sec. It uses zero-copy IPC and SPSC lock-free ring buffers with cache-line padding (64-byte) to prevent false sharing.
- RYŪ: Real-time telemetry dashboard with WebSocket streaming for instant L7 threat visualization.
- CHRONOS: High-performance LSM-tree storage engine designed for high-write throughput.

- Zero-Copy IPC Bridge: Custom implementation using memfd_create and SCM_RIGHTS for file descriptor passing between isolated processes.
- Mechanical Sympathy: Hot paths designed to be zero-allocation, leveraging pre-allocated slab pools and cache-local data structures.
- O(1) Mitigation: Constant-time IP tracking and SYN-flood detection on the network hot path.
Theoretical Peak (Lab Environment)
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| IPC Throughput | 85.37 Mpps (wire-speed) |
| Mitigation Latency | <12 ms for 1M event burst |
| Memory Profile | Deterministic, zero-malloc during active attack mitigation |
- Peak Throughput:
28.97 Mpps(Sustained over 100M events) - Event Latency:
~34.5 nsper packet - IPC Architecture:
memfd_create+SCM_RIGHTS(Zero-Copy) - Environment: Pop!_OS 22.04 | Ryzen | Core Pinning (
taskset -c 2,4)
