REFINE: A Resilient Evolution Framework for Intelligent Enterprise Alert Triage in Security Operations Centers

REFINE is introduced, an LLM-agent framework for enterprise alert triage that enforces recall = 1.0 as a hard constraint during evolution to maximize auto-closure of false positives, and identifies judgment blind spots by combining alert distributions with model error boundaries.

Hearsay: Can an Auditor Trust the Record a Deployed Agent Harness Writes?

An agent harness, the code that turns a model into an agent, writes its own record of each run, and that record is all a later reader gets when a run is disputed, investigated or audited. We call a record evidentiary when a reader who was not there can check it without trusting the writer. Across sixteen deployed frame...

Black-Box Auditing of Epistemic Reliability in Multi-Agent Debate Distillation

This work proposes ER-Audit, a two-stage black-box auditing framework that compares frozen verifier checkpoints before and after adaptation, and introduces two evaluation benchmarks pairing monitored and hidden task prompts grounded in shared contexts.

CyberWorld: World Models for Sample-Efficient Autonomous Cyber Defense

This work introduces CyberWorld, a Dreamer-style world modeling framework that learns latent cyber dynamics from vector, graph, textual, and multimodal representations of the defended network, and identifies world representation as a central design axis for robustness and scalability.

A Large-Scale Benchmark and Risk Assessment of Traffic Analysis Attacks on Cloud LLM Services

This work presents, to its knowledge, the first unified measurement study and public benchmark of encrypted LLM traffic across both user--LLM and multi-agent executions, and assess the risk of traffic analysis attack by characterizing traffic signatures, identifying the features most associated with leakage, and testin...

High-Capacity Robust Medical Image Exfiltration via Neural Network Weight Replacement

Collaborative medical AI platforms allow researchers to train models on sensitive imaging data while restricting data export. However, trained models can serve as covert carriers of patient information: medical images may be encoded within model parameters and reconstructed outside the secure environment. Existing defe...

What Drives Dialectal Jailbreaks? An Ablation of Surface Form, Cultural Framing, and Strategy Banks

Recent work suggests that obscure language registers can weaken large language model refusal behavior, especially when paired with black-box prompt optimization. It remains unclear whether failures stem from non-standard surface form, culturally grounded framing, or optimization over an expressive prompt-strategy space...

Information Design Against Gaming and Learning Adversaries

The Pareto frontier between the two defense objectives is characterized, and both rates are confirmed on seven binary-classification tasks spanning tabular, image, and language-model-feature inputs: label-plus-counterfactual access extracts the boundary with up to $200\times$ fewer queries than a published label-only b...

Share-Borne AI Virus: Memory-Hopping Attacks Across LLM Agents

This work introduces artifact-mediated propagation, where adversarial content introduced through an artifact is stored in an assistant's persistent memory, reproduced in a subsequently created artifact, and acquired by another assistant that later reads it.

Black October? The Week AI Changed the Cybersecurity Conversation

Critical flaws, compromised release channels and agentic AI threats landed within days of each other in mid-October 2026. Why “Black October” may say more about how well we now find weaknesses than about the attacks themselves. The post Black October? The Week AI Changed the Cybersecurity Conversation appeared first on GPT-Lab.
