This repository contains our team's B.R.A.D. (Bot to Report Abusive Domains) project, a cybersecurity web application that automates the analysis of potentially malicious URLs. Users can submit suspicious links through the website, where an AI-powered bot safely visits and analyzes the domain. The system extracts metadata, detects threats like malware, and compiles forensic reports. All findings are aggregated into a centralized platform that supports incident reporting, dashboard visualization, and historical threat analysis.
