Aria Security

An AI-powered antivirus and system-defence platform for Windows.

Aria combines a real machine-learning PE classifier with YARA rules, hash signatures, certificate reputation and behavioural analysis, and pairs them with live network, ransomware, exploit and removable-storage protection all driven from a single local web UI and an embedded security assistant.

Highlights

What sets it apart.

Real ML detection

A LightGBM model trained on the full EMBER 2018 labelled set (300k benign / 300k malicious) and exported to ONNX. Holdout AUC 0.99755.

Four-layer file verdict

ML score, fuzzy/import hashing, YARA rules and Authenticode certificate reputation fused by an explicit precedence policy rather than a single signal.

Live protection

Network reputation/IOC blocking, ransomware canaries and entropy analysis, exploit-chain detection, behavioural rules, and a port-scan / SYN-flood defence.

All your drives

Real-time monitoring across the user profile and every attached fixed and removable drive USB sticks and external HDD/SSDs picking up drives plugged in later without a restart.

Sentinel Sense

Tracks what each installer puts on the machine and, after an uninstall, shows the leftovers as a data tree and offers to remove them.

Argus assistant

An embedded security assistant that runs without a model (deterministic command routing over real tools) and gets richer when a local GGUF is present. Destructive actions are confirmation-gated.

Detection

A layered detection engine.

No single signal decides a verdict. Aria fuses six independent layers under an explicit precedence policy.

  • ML EMBER 2381-dim features → LightGBM → ONNX, holdout AUC 0.99755.
  • Hash MD5 / SHA-256 signature sets.
  • Fuzzy import hashing + TLSH, degrading gracefully when unavailable.
  • YARA curated rule namespaces, user-extendable from the UI.
  • Certificate Authenticode via WinVerifyTrust, embedded and catalog signatures.
  • Fusion an explicit precedence policy over all of the above.
Protection

Protection that runs in real time.

  • Network reputation and IOC blocking.
  • Ransomware canaries and entropy analysis.
  • Exploit-chain detection and behavioural rules.
  • Port-scan / SYN-flood defence.
  • Real-time monitoring across every fixed and removable drive.
Architecture

A local service with a clean UI.

A Flask app on 127.0.0.1:8765 exposes REST routes and live Socket.IO events to a frameless shell. The UI is a pure client nothing in the engine knows how it is displayed. As a Windows service it runs as LocalSystem: protection starts before login and survives the window being closed.

  • Runs headless or as a desktop window.
  • Tamper-resistant quarantine and whitelist under ProgramData.
  • Secure vault, scan history, schedules and the Sense map kept locally.

Defence that respects your machine.
