# PRIMUS: A Pioneering Collection of Open-Source Datasets for Cybersecurity LLM Training



## 🤗 Primus-Instruct

The **Primus-Instruct** dataset contains hundreds of expert-curated cybersecurity business scenario use case instructions, with responses generated by GPT-4o. It includes tasks such as:

- Explaining detected alerts  
- Answering questions about retrieved security documents  
- Analyzing executed suspicious commands  
- Generating query languages for retrieving security events  
- Providing security recommendations and risk assessments for Terraform configurations  

🚀🚀 For more details, see our paper:  
[https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.11191](https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.11191)

### 🔹 Message Format
Conversations are stored in `messages` in the following format:

```json
[
  {"role": "user", "content": "..."},
  {"role": "assistant", "content": "..."},
  {"role": "user", "content": "..."},
  {"role": "assistant", "content": "..."}
]
```
