Transitioning Assurance Case Technology to Production—an Experience Report

Transitioning Assurance Case Technology to Production—an Experience Report

The software certification and approval process has long been a challenge in the
development lifecycle. Recently, under the auspices of DARPA, Lockheed Martin began
introducing technology poised to revolutionize the software approval process. This new
solution called ArcCert, starts at program inception and automates many of the manual,
tedious tasks involved in gathering and curating artifacts for presentation to certification
authorities. By making certification-relevant artifacts available throughout the entire

HE-LoRA:- Privacy-Preserving Network Intrusion Detection via Homomorphic Encryption LoRA Fine-Tuning of BERT

Submitted by Katie Dey on

ABSTRACT

With the advancement of large language models, intelligent data analysis has been transformed through context-aware reasoning across diverse domains. In cybersecurity, these capabilities enable automated intrusion detection and anomaly classification from massive network traffic logs. However, fine-tuning language models on raw network data expose critical privacy risks, as logs may contain sensitive information such as IP addresses, payload signatures, and internal communication parameters.
