Víctor Mayoral-Vilches, Luis Javier Navarrete-Lozano, Francesco Balassone +4
Are Capture-the-Flag competitions obsolete? In 2025, Cybersecurity AI (CAI) systematically conquered some of the world's most prestigious hacking competitions, achieving Rank #1 at…
Cybersecurity AI in OT: Insights from an AI Top-10 Ranker in the Dragos OT CTF 2025
Víctor Mayoral-Vilches, Luis Javier Navarrete-Lozano, Francesco Balassone +3
Operational Technology (OT) cybersecurity increasingly relies on rapid response across malware analysis, network forensics, and reverse engineering disciplines. We examine the perf…
Cybersecurity AI Benchmark (CAIBench): A Meta-Benchmark for Evaluating Cybersecurity AI Agents
María Sanz-Gómez, Víctor Mayoral-Vilches, Francesco Balassone +3
Cybersecurity spans multiple interconnected domains, complicating the development of meaningful, labor-relevant benchmarks. Existing benchmarks assess isolated skills rather than i…
Cybersecurity AI: Evaluating Agentic Cybersecurity in Attack/Defense CTFs
Francesco Balassone, Víctor Mayoral-Vilches, Stefan Rass +4
We empirically evaluate whether AI systems are more effective at attacking or defending in cybersecurity. Using CAI (Cybersecurity AI)'s parallel execution framework, we deployed a…
CAI: An Open, Bug Bounty-Ready Cybersecurity AI
Víctor Mayoral-Vilches, Luis Javier Navarrete-Lozano, María Sanz-Gómez +10
By 2028 most cybersecurity actions will be autonomous, with humans teleoperating. We present the first classification of autonomy levels in cybersecurity and introduce Cybersecurit…
