ai-security-tool
🛡️ Free open-source AI-powered security terminal & vulnerability scanner (CVE, SBOM). Supports SSH, SFTP, RDP, VNC, Serial, and 12+ autonomous AI agents (DeepSeek, OpenAI) for automated security workflows, CTF & DevSecOps. Cross-platform & Web UI.
No outside reports on file
This tool needs high trust because it handles login credentials, connects to production systems, and sends security data to external AI services—use it only in isolated test environments and never with real production credentials.
Based on public adoption and transparency signals as of Oct 23, 2026. Our opinion, not a code audit or security guarantee.

About AI Security Tool
This tool combines a security terminal with AI agents to scan systems for vulnerabilities, check for known security issues (CVEs), and run automated security tests. It can connect to remote machines via SSH, RDP, and other protocols, and uses AI models like DeepSeek or OpenAI to help analyze security problems.
Who it’s for
Security researchers, DevSecOps teams, and people doing capture-the-flag (CTF) competitions who want AI help finding and fixing vulnerabilities. It's designed for people comfortable with technical security tools.
Alternatives
- OpenVAS: Open-source vulnerability scanner with no AI, widely tested and established.
- Nessus: Commercial vulnerability scanner with strong CVE coverage and less external AI dependency.
- OWASP ZAP: Free web app security scanner, manual or script-driven, no autonomous AI agents.
- Trivy: Lightweight vulnerability scanner for containers and code, no remote access or AI features.
Setup
Check these steps against the project’s own instructions before running anything.
Follow the project's README at https://github.com/ZeroDayEvil/ai-security-tool (opens external site) for installation and setup instructions. The project may provide package installation or Docker options—check their documentation for your system.
Why this grade
Signal-based grade (3/7 points): well starred on GitHub, public source code. This reflects adoption and transparency, not a code review.

Risks to watch for
- Remote access credentials: The tool stores or handles SSH, RDP, and other login credentials to connect to your systems; if compromised, attackers gain access to those machines.
- AI model access: You send security data and code to external AI services (OpenAI, DeepSeek); sensitive details about your infrastructure could leak there.
- Privilege escalation: Running as root or with admin rights means any bug in the tool or injected code could take over your whole system.
- Malicious scan results: Specially crafted files or network responses could trick the AI agents into running harmful commands or misinterpreting safe data as threats.
- Web UI exposure: If the web interface is exposed to untrusted networks, attackers could access scan results, stored credentials, or run unauthorized scans.
How to lower the risk
Least-privilege permissions
- Run the tool with minimal permissions needed for its specific scans, never as root.
- Use dedicated, limited-access accounts for remote connections instead of admin credentials.
Network isolation
- Keep the tool and its web UI on isolated networks, not exposed to the internet.
- Restrict which machines it can reach; don't give it blanket access to your network.
Monitoring
- Log all scans, credentials used, and AI model interactions to spot unusual activity.
- Review what data the tool sends to external AI services before running it.
Red flags to watch for
- Unexpected network connections or high data uploads to AI service endpoints.
- Tool requesting admin/root permissions without clear reason for specific scans.
