Fighting Adversity with Innovation

Just before Christmas, my life changed.

After a long struggle with unexplained illness, I was diagnosed with adult-onset Type 1 diabetes and Addison’s disease. These aren't just names—they’ve become daily challenges. Managing both has meant a complete lifestyle overhaul: strict routines, medication schedules, specialized diets. Combined with the everyday hurdles of navigating life with Autism, it’s been overwhelming, physically and financially.

Then, when I needed support the most, my family structure collapsed due to external strain—isolating me and leaving me to face this new reality alone.

But I haven’t stopped building.

Technology has always been my strength and my sanctuary. Even through the chaos, I’ve been working on tools to help others—projects like:

A site matching workers to visa eligibility and housing.

A GOV.UK-based assistant to cut through public service red tape.

ColonyAI: an ethical AI framework using swarm logic across smaller agents.

And my flagship: Jave Ethical Defender—a revolutionary AI-powered firewall.

Meet Jave Ethical Defender

Jave isn’t just another firewall. It’s a fully operational, intelligent perimeter defense built from the ground up to monitor behavior, not just rules. It actively detects scrapers, botnets, unknown agents—even seemingly “friendly” traffic that acts suspiciously.

During testing, Jave defeated a botnet attack with over 5,000 nodes—rated 100/100 on AbuseIPDB—with minimal resource usage. No hardware firewall. Ubuntu’s own was turned off. Even Fail2Ban couldn’t keep up. Jave shut it down and captured forensics live, including header entropy, packet intent, payloads, and offender profiling.

It’s beyond enterprise-grade security—and built to be accessible to everyone.

Traditional firewalls rely on static rules. Jave uses deterministic AI to understand how data behaves, not just what it is. Every connection is scored, monitored, and sandboxed if necessary—even tools like VS Code’s Copilot get flagged when they rotate IPs like a botnet. This isn’t rule-based defense. This is real-time behavioral firewalling.

And it works.

See the Proof Jave Is Real, Active, and Operational

These screenshots aren’t mockups—they’re live captures from the system running Jave Ethical Defender in production:

Real-Time Threat Logging: The firewall catching and handling botnet and malformed traffic with detailed behavioral scoring. Every connection is tracked, assessed, and either trusted, sandboxed, or banned based on behavior—not arbitrary rules.

Daemon Service and Performance Footprint: See the Jave service running as a native systemd process, using minimal resources—even while actively defending against attacks. It runs efficiently on powerful hardware, but is light enough for everyday deployments.

Attack Visualizer and Behavioral Engine: This panel shows the firewall during an active operation—detecting, profiling, and quarantining malicious traffic in real time. Connections are scored and routed based on entropy, cadence, and header intent—proof that Jave doesn’t just see the traffic; it understands it.

These images show what words sometimes struggle to—this isn’t a concept or prototype. Jave is here. It works. And it’s ready to defend.

Why I’m Asking for Help

Right now, I’m on the verge of losing my home. I don’t need a fortune—just enough rent to hold on for a couple of weeks. Two weeks, and I can finish getting Jave into the hands of developers, sysadmins, small businesses—the people who need it most.

I plan to release Jave at a one-time price of £30, because security shouldn't be a luxury. It shouldn’t be locked behind enterprise paywalls. Everyone running a website—WordPress, Drupal, even static sites—should have access to protection like this.

I’ve built the system. It works. It’s ready. But right now, I just need the roof to stay above my head so I can complete the launch.

What's Next

Any funds raised first cover immediate rent.

Anything left will be invested back into Jave’s development: refining the trust engine, building file system companions, and integrating forensic dashboards.

I intend to make all updates part of the lifetime license—no subscriptions, no gotchas.

If allowed by GoFundMe, I will gift back a copy of Jave to every donor once launched. If not, I’ll ensure early access is provided another way.

Thank You

If you’ve read this far, you already understand that this isn’t just about rent—it’s about potential. I’m not asking for pity. I’m asking for a chance to get over this temporary cliff edge and bring something truly useful into the world.

If you choose to help, you’re not just supporting me—you’re helping build a new standard of open, ethical, AI-driven defense for everyone.

Thank you, Adam
