Autonomy in Check: Governor-Mediated Adaptive Security at the Edge

Split-control architecture adds a deterministic governor to validate LLM and rule-based planner intents before eBPF enforcement at the edge.

Researchers propose a split-control edge security architecture in which an untrusted planner emits typed security intents that a deterministic governor checks against safety, resource, temporal-stability, and proportionality invariants. Admitted actions are bound to signed receipts and compiled into pre-installed eBPF map updates. A Raspberry Pi 5 prototype on a university 5G test network admitted, rejected, and bounded intents at microsecond cost.

Event-Native Symbolic-Temporal Spike Encoding Framework for Heterogeneous Cyber Streams

An event-native spike encoding framework lets recurrent spiking neural networks run intrusion detection directly on heterogeneous packet and CAN bus streams.

The paper maps heterogeneous cyber events—categorical identifiers, local frequency context, and inter-event timing—directly into sparse spike-compatible inputs for spiking neural networks. This avoids flow aggregation and fixed windows that add buffering latency and obscure temporal structure in traditional IDS pipelines. Compact recurrent SNNs under edge-oriented neuromorphic hardware constraints achieve a hybrid anomaly metric of 0.987 on packet-level Network IDS and 0.980 on message-level CAN IDS.

Detecting Logic Vulnerabilities Across the Contract and Device Layers of Blockchain-Enabled IoT With Multi-Agent Heterogeneous Graph Attention

MA-HGAT framework detects logic vulnerabilities across smart contract and IoT device firmware layers using multi-agent heterogeneous graph attention.

Researchers extend MA-HGAT into a cross-layer multi-agent heterogeneous graph attention framework that models smart contracts, firmware artifacts, device fleets, and transaction streams for blockchain-enabled IoT security. A four-role, nine-relation schema supports graph-, link-, and node-level detection tasks, while a gateway-cloud partition enables lightweight edge inference on resource-constrained devices.
