Learning the APT Kill Chain: Temporal Reasoning over Provenance Data for Attack Stage Estimation

Advanced Persistent Threats APTs evolve through multiple stages, each exhibiting distinct temporal and structural behaviors. Accurate stage estimation is critical for enabling adaptive cyber defense. This paper presents StageFinder, a temporal graph learning framework for multi-stage attack...

From One Attack Domain to Another: Contrastive Transfer Learning with Siamese Networks for APT Detection

Advanced Persistent Threats APT pose a major cybersecurity challenge due to their stealth, persistence, and adaptability. Traditional machine learning detectors struggle with class imbalance, high dimensional features, and scarce real world traces. They often lack transferability-performing well ...
