Outline

We developed a specialized language model for analyzing cybersecurity and threat intelligence data. SecureBERT 2.0 builds on the ModernBERT architecture and improves long-form context modeling and hierarchical encoding to efficiently process threat reports and source code artifacts. Pre-trained on a domain-specific corpus (13 billion text tokens and 53 million code tokens) that is 13 times larger than previous models, it demonstrates improved performance in threat intelligence semantic search, semantic analysis, cybersecurity-specific named entity recognition, and automated vulnerability detection.

Takeaways, Limitations

Takeaways:
Improving the performance of language models specialized in cybersecurity (semantic search, analytics, named entity recognition, vulnerability detection).
Improved architecture for handling long documents and source code (based on ModernBERT).
Pre-training using large domain-specific datasets.
Limitations:
Lack of details about specific architectural improvements and training data.
Absence of information on comparative analysis with other language models.
Lack of information on deployment and utilization in actual operating environments.
