Autonomous cyber defense systems based on Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) have attracted significant research attention, yet remain evaluated almost exclusively against static, heuristic red agents, leaving their robustness against adaptive threats critically understudied. Meanwhile, recent advances in Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) have improved LLM reasoning, but their integration into cybersecurity remains elusive due to the absence of suitable benchmark environments and interaction datasets.
With the increasing complexity of cyber assaults in cloud environments, adaptable security solutions are needed that can support real-time detection and autonomous response. In this paper, we propose a reinforcement learning-based dynamic cyber defense framework.
