SynAccel-Bridge

SynAccel-Bridge is the starting point for building a cyber-physical event bridge — a system that connects digital security platforms (like cloud or SOC systems) with physical and automated systems (like sensors, access controllers, or robotics).

The main goal is to learn and design how real-time data from both cyber and physical sources can be received, validated, and processed securely.
It acts as the foundation for future research in automation, robotics, and adaptive defense systems under SynAccel Cyber.

Current Focus

• Building a small FastAPI backend that receives and validates events
• Understanding how APIs move and secure data between systems
• Creating the first version of a “bridge” that could later connect IoT, security sensors, and automation logic

Example Event

{
  "source": "door_sensor_A1",
  "type": "motion",
  "details": {
    "zone": "server_room",
    "confidence": 0.95
  }
}

Authentication and Logging

Device or Client  --->  SynAccel-Bridge API  --->  logs/events_log.jsonl
                       (auth + validation)       (timestamped entries)

Experiment with event correlation and adaptive responses

Component	Description	Status
Event Intake (API)	/api/event endpoint using FastAPI, with Pydantic validation	Done
Authentication	Secure API-key system via .env + header check	Done
Logging	Automatic logging to events_log.jsonl	Done
Correlation Engine	Detects repeated intrusions + motion/access_denied sequence	Done
Adaptive Responses	Prints “isolation” or “diagnostic” actions	Done
Cooldown Logic	Prevents spammy re-alerts, makes system time-aware	Done
Simulated Feed	sensor_simulator.py continuously generates events	Done

Next Steps

• Expand to IoT or robotic telemetry integration
