LLM-Based Agents for Software and Systems Security: Approaches, Applications, and Assessment
[Kryptografia i bezpieczeństwo] Autorzy: Jingjing Nie, Jiawei Guo, Krishna Meda i 1 więcej
Software and systems security workflows are typically procedural: analysts inspect heterogeneous artifacts, form hypotheses, invoke tools, interpret outputs, and revise plans. Large language model (LLM)-based agents, which can plan, use tools, retain state, and revise actions across multi-step workflows, are being rapidly adopted to automate this work. Given the consequences of delegating security decisions to autonomous systems, understanding how such agents are built, used, and assessed is crucial. Yet to this date, there remains a lack of systematic understanding of what has been done and how far we are in this field: the term "agent" is applied inconsistently, applications differ sharply in risk, and assessment protocols are often incomparable. To gain a comprehensive and coherent view of this area hence inform relevant future research, this paper provides a systematic literature re…
