Show HN: I built a Python-based app for Windows security diagnostics

Secuditor Lite is a free, Python-based diagnostic security tool for Windows endpoints and networks with a friendly GUI.

It helps identify system vulnerabilities, improve device Operational Security (OPSEC), detect network elements, run internet speed test, and generate structured audit reports, all in one place.

Is this inspecting certificates in real-time or analyzing stored traffic? And does it flag things like expired certs, weak ciphers, or pinned certificates that failed validation?

The structured audit report output is the most useful part for teams — raw diagnostic output is fine for individuals but useless in a compliance or incident review context without formatting. Curious about the threat model here: is this designed for self-diagnostics by end users, or for IT teams auditing multiple endpoints? The GUI suggests the former, but the network detection features feel more like the latter. Knowing which one would help frame what the tool is actually optimising for.

At the current stage, its primarily designed for self-diagnostics and single-endpoint analysis, so individual users or admins can quickly audit a Windows system when needed.

I do plan to expand it toward an EDR-style solution with a centralized detection server for admins.
