DFIR ATT&CK Technique Classification (3-Shot CoT): leaderboard

Multi-label MITRE ATT&CK technique classification of cyber-threat-intelligence sentences (Ryan et al., 2026): 2,076 sentences from 83 incident reports of The DFIR Report, 38 percent carrying no technique, labelled against the 211-technique Enterprise taxonomy supplied in context. Three in-context examples with chain-of-thought reasoning at temperature 0, open-weight models run at Q4_K_M 4-bit quantization; micro-F1 in percent, higher is better.

Metric: Micro-F1 (%; multi-label ATT&CK technique prediction for 2,076 sentences from 83 The DFIR Report incident reports, 211-technique label space; three in-context examples with chain-of-thought prompting, temperature 0; models run at Q4_K_M 4-bit quantization). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 7 models tracked.
