The goal of this project is to work towards a fully automated player in cyber-defence exercises.

We have been working on this topic for several years already (see publications below) but the there are still many open research challenges.

If you are interested, please contact us and we will be happy to provide more details.

Some of our past work in this area:

  • Towards Generalizing Machine Learning Models to Detect Command and Control Attack Traffic [CyCon 2023]
  • Towards an AI-powered Player in Cyber Defence Exercises [CyCon 2021]
  • Machine Learning-based Detection of C&C Channels with a Focus on the Locked Shields Cyber Defense Exercise [CyCon 2019]
