arXiv:2607. 00763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Digital forensic investigations of network intrusions require analytical outputs that are traceable, reproducible, and court-defensible - requirements existing machine learning pipelines do not satisfy, since they treat original evidence as training data and produce opaque classifications without instance-level justification.

arXiv:2608. 15761v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Edge-IIoTset is the reference benchmark for machine-learning intrusion detection in the industrial Internet of Things, and results reported on it cluster above 99%.

arXiv:2608. 08100v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enables large language models to classify network flows and generate human-readable incident reports by retrieving semantically similar historical traffic from a vector knowledge base.

arXiv:2606. 10216v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) are stealthy, multi-stage cyberattacks whose detection is difficult due to scarce labeled traces, severe class imbalance, and the challenge of generating realistic malicious behavior.

arXiv:2608. 12789v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tool-using agents consume external data from sources with different levels of trust, yet tool responses rarely identify who produced each component or what it should convey.

arXiv:2606. 05844v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rule-based Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDPS) offer precise attack detection as well as mitigation, however their manually crafted, signature-driven rules limit adaptability to emerging and zero-day threats.

arXiv:2606. 30430v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The increasing connectivity of modern vehicles has made securing in-vehicle communication networks a critical challenge.

arXiv:2509. 14335v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Automated malware classifiers achieve strong detection performance, but auditing requires more than flagging a sample: analysts must explain malicious behaviors and justify them with code evidence.

arXiv:2606. 03305v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Benchmark contamination, where evaluation examples appear in a model's training data, threatens the validity of LLM assessment.
