Review telemetry and logs from SIEM, EDR/XDR, firewall, cloud, and identity platforms
Classify adversary activity using frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK
Evaluate detection rules, alert quality, triage workflows, and response strategies
Assess the technical accuracy of AI-generated threat investigations
Red Team / Offensive Security
Analyze full attack chains including initial access, persistence, privilege escalation, and data exfiltration
Simulate attacker behavior to identify detection gaps and evasion techniques
Evaluate exploit techniques, payload behavior, and adversary tactics
Stress-test AI systems using realistic red-team scenarios
AI Evaluation
Provide structured reasoning explaining investigative and adversarial decisions
Identify weaknesses in AI threat analysis
Contribute insights that help improve AI cybersecurity benchmarks
