Implementing a U.S. Cyber Force: A Conversation with Representative Pat Fallon | CSIS Events
Join CSIS for a discussion with Representative Pat Fallon on the future of a U.S. Cyber Force.

The collapse of response time is leaving defenders with less and less time to respond during incidents
That's one big reason why proactive cyber -- or offensive cyber or active defense -- is now garnering the spotlight.
Check out my latest CSO piece on why leading cyber defenders think defense is no longer enough.
Many thanks to Glenn Gerstell, John Hultquist, Cynthia Kaiser, and Adam Maruyama for their insight.

The rise of proactive cyber: Why defense is no longer enough
As cyberattacks accelerate and threat actor coordination deepens, government and industry are moving upstream to disrupt adversaries — but this shift raises questions about authority, risk, and what enterprise security leaders should do.

Abstract: Signal Temporal Logic (STL) is widely used to specify timed and safety-critical tasks for cyber-physical systems, but writing STL formulas directly is difficult for non-expert users. Natural language (NL) provides a convenient interface, yet its inherent structural ambiguity makes one-to-one translation into STL unreliable. In this paper, we propose an \textit{ambiguity-preserving} method for translating NL task descriptions into STL candidate formulas. The key idea is to retain multiple plausible syntactic analyses instead of forcing a single interpretation at the parsing stage. To this end, we develop a three-stage pipeline based on Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG): ambiguity-preserving $n$-best parsing, STL-oriented template-based semantic composition, and canonicalization with score aggregation. The proposed method outputs a deduplicated set of STL candidates with plausibility scores, thereby explicitly representing multiple possible formal interpretations of an ambiguous instruction. In contrast to existing one-best NL-to-logic translation methods, the proposed approach is designed to preserve attachment and scope ambiguity. Case studies on representative task descriptions demonstrate that the method generates multiple STL candidates for genuinely ambiguous inputs while collapsing unambiguous or canonically equivalent derivations to a single STL formula.
