Brian Singer, the lead researcher and a PhD candidate at Carnegie Mellon’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, said the goal was to measure LLMs’ ability to autonomously plan an attack without the need for human assistance. However, in the research paper, we evaluated Incalmo in 10 small enterprise environments,” Singer told Cybersecurity Dive via email.
