Safeguard: Security Controls at the Software Defined Network Layer

Improvements in software defined networking allow for policy to be informed and modified by data-driven applications that can adjust policy to accommodate fluctuating requirements at line speed. However, there is some concern that over-correction can occur and cause unintended consequences...

Cybersecurity Predictions 2026: The Hype We Can Ignore (And the Risks We Can't)

As organizations plan for 2026, cybersecurity predictions are everywhere. Yet many strategies are still shaped by headlines and speculation rather than evidence. The real challenge isn't a lack of forecasts—it's identifying which predictions reflect real, emerging risks and which can safely be...

CurricuLLM: Designing Personalized and Workforce-Aligned Cybersecurity Curricula Using Fine-Tuned LLMs

The cybersecurity landscape is constantly evolving, driven by increased digitalization and new cybersecurity threats. Cybersecurity programs often fail to equip graduates with skills demanded by the workforce, particularly concerning recent developments in cybersecurity, as curriculum design is...

Hybrid Quantum-Classical Autoencoders for Unsupervised Network Intrusion Detection

Unsupervised anomaly-based intrusion detection requires models that can generalize to attack patterns not observed during training. This work presents the first large-scale evaluation of hybrid quantum-classical HQC autoencoders for this task. We construct a unified experimental framework that...

A Secured Intent-Based Networking (SIBN) with Data-Driven Time-Aware Intrusion Detection

While Intent-Based Networking IBN promises operational efficiency through autonomous and abstraction-driven network management, a critical unaddressed issue lies in IBN's implicit trust in the integrity of intent ingested by the network. This inherent assumption of data reliability creates a blin...
