Join AppITP for a Training & Evaluating Mid-Weight LLMs for Blue Team Op Tech Talk presented by Jim Webb, Appalachian State Chief Information Security Officer!
📅 Tuesday, October 20th
⏰ 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM
📍 Peacock Hall, Room 2012 (Cyber Lab)
Attackers are increasingly using AI/LLMs to help move offensive operations toward wire-speed to write the malware, hack the sites, and exfiltrate data. For the past few months, our CISO has been researching the less explored other side: can we train mid-size AI models to also help human operators after a break-in by speeding up response efforts by reading the logs to reconstruct what happened, in what order, and who did it? This talk will cover a high-level view of the state of the art in AI cyber model training, including open-weight models, model ablation, post-training methods, and cost/benefits, with special considerations for AI/LLMs in blue team operations. If time and resources permit, students will have the chance to safely simulate adversarial activity against a host and determine if the blue team model is able to spot, report, and respond to simulated hacking attempts.
