arXiv:2607. 19742v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) reports richly describe real-world attack processes, but their unstructured narratives cannot be directly used for automated attack-path reasoning.

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. 24245v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly automate complex tasks by integrating language models with external tools and environments.

arXiv:2606. 05252v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Security teams routinely simulate attacks against their own systems to check whether their monitoring would catch a real intruder.

arXiv:2509. 16749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLMs are increasingly pervasive in the security environment, with limited measures of their effectiveness, which limits trust and usefulness to security practitioners.
By Anna Bertiger, Bobby Filar, Aryan Luthra, Stefano Meschiari, Aiden Mitchell, Sam Scholten, Vivek Sharath
arXiv:2606. 27091v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLMs fine-tuned for security classification are usually evaluated on held-out examples from the same distribution as their training data.
By Ryan Fetterman
arXiv:2606. 12231v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The adoption of AI-powered Integrated Development Environments (AI IDEs) has introduced "Rules" as a novel software artifact, allowing developers to persistently inject project-specific constraints and architectural guidelines into the context of Large Language Models (LLMs).

arXiv:2510. 11974v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) is foundational to modern cybersecurity, enabling organizations to proactively defend against evolving threats.
By Yutong Cheng, Yang Liu, Changze Li, Dawn Song, Peng Gao
arXiv:2509. 10482v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The increasing sophistication of technology systems makes traditional threat modeling hard to scale, especially for small organizations with limited resources.
By Matthew Grofsky
arXiv:2606. 03453v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vulnerability disclosure volumes now far exceed organizational assessment capacity, yet three adjacent research communities (proof-of-concept generation, vulnerability prioritization, and detection rule engineering) operate largely in isolation.
By Farooq Shaikh
arXiv:2608. 07808v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Four years after prompt injection was first identified in 2022, attacks are still predominantly documented as verbatim strings rather than structured exploits, despite advancing agent capabilities and threat actors embedding injections to subvert AI-assisted security analysis.
