Sommario
On Friday, February 20th, 2026, we will have a new talk for the series #NECSTFridayTalk.During this talk, we will have, as speaker, Francesco Panebianco, PhD at Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria.
Effective Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) is crucial for proactive defense; however, the high costs and technical complexity of commercial solutions make them inaccessible to the majority of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). Furthermore, public CTI is predominantly available as unstructured text, making manual processing unbearable for resource-constrained organizations. To address this gap, we present a unified, low-cost pipeline that ingests, processes, and presents actionable CTI to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) through a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) conversational interface. The system automatically crawls public CTI sources and integrates them with up-to-date Common Vulnerability Exposure (CVE) repositories to ensure coverage of structured and unstructured threat data. To enhance scalability compared to existing solutions, we transform raw reports into a knowledge graph that facilitates efficient querying and contextual retrieval. The system finally combines graph-derived intelligence with organization-specific software configurations to generate tailored, accessible threat guidance from a Large Language Model (LLM).
The NECSTLab is a DEIB laboratory, with different research lines on advanced topics in computing systems: from architectural characteristics, to hardware-software codesign methodologies, to security and dependability issues of complex system architectures.
