The Path To Autonomous Cyber Defense

Published 12 Apr 2024 in cs.CR and cs.AI | (2404.10788v1)

Abstract: Defenders are overwhelmed by the number and scale of attacks against their networks.This problem will only be exacerbated as attackers leverage artificial intelligence to automate their workflows. We propose a path to autonomous cyber agents able to augment defenders by automating critical steps in the cyber defense life cycle.
