These guys are a great thing. They try to crack your corporate network, social engineer your employees and just fall short of coming at night or as the Telecom guy to install a Sniffer.
Or you go Linux and set up my Diamond ICE Architecture.
The AI part is that it includes a script to let an LLM analyze the log files of the installed open source software parts. I will eventually upload to the GitHub page an installation script and all parts, but for now it is a design, an architecture.
The Cyberdeck AI Knowledge Management System is basically a low cost hardware using Beowulf Cluster with RAGed open source Ollama LLMs stretched out over the nodes. The Diamond ICE uses this base architecture to create a secure LAN environment.
Beowulf Clusters are a Supercomputer design based on Linux and IBM compatible hardware. They are extremely cheap parallel processing systems and used in Universities and research labs. In general, they need dedicated software to use the parallel ability they are designed for, but some Linux OS libraries also use the MPICH communication system that can be easily installed on every Linux computer. FFMPEG for mp3 decoding is the most prominent of plenty others.
MPICH is a widely used implementation of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard, primarily designed for parallel computing across distributed memory systems. Because it is designed for high-performance computing (HPC) rather than media processing specifically, it is used by a vast array of scientific, simulation, and data-processing libraries.
Beside installing that MPICH part the Beowulf design needs a common user on each node, SSH password less access across those and a file that contains IP and host name.
That creates a base layer below the actual user for computer administration, load balancing LLM requests and the Diamond ICE security layer.
I designed a script coded by DeepSeek that will on my normal user, on the head node, check and update on all other running nodes several open source applications that scan each node, allow only traffic between the nodes and create log files.
ClamAV - Antivirus
Automatic Security Updates (set and forget)
Logwatch - Daily security summary emails
PSAD (Port Scan Attack Detector)
The price is depending on the user, all that can Visa buy, but plus some sweat dealing with Linux, that only makes sense tailoring it.
That means no Sniffer has a chance, every social engeneer needs to crack the system admin having access to the headnode and mpiuser layer password, and everyone going past the router from the outside will go nuts next step hitting any IP.

Synonyms/Slang: Intrusion Countermeasures, IC, "Eis" (German slang), or "Black IC" for
Functions: Ranging from "White IC" (passive detection/impediment) to "Grey IC"
Usage Examples:
Trace IC: Identifies a hacker’s physical location.
Killer IC: Attacks the hacker’s persona directly to crash their system.
Tar Baby: Targets and destroys specific utility programs.
Blaster/Sparky: Causes electrical damage to both the deck and the operator.
Link-locking: Traps a decker in the host, preventing them from jacking out.
ICE is crucial to corporate security, acting as the virtual equivalent of security guards. It protects high-value data and can be a fatal threat if a runner is not prepared.
