🏆 The SPECTRO team from University of Turku was honored with the Emerging Research Award at the Intelligent Systems Conference (IntelliSys 2025) in Amsterdam.
Their paper, “Evaluating a Human-Agent Supervised LLM-Driven Methodology for Internet Routing Security Software Development”, explores how Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT can move beyond text generation to actively assist in software development for cybersecurity.
🔍 The study introduces a human-agent supervised, four-step loop, where an LLM writes and refines Python code under continuous feedback from human researchers. This iterative process ensures accuracy, functionality, and adherence to secure coding standards.
In their proof-of-concept, the model successfully classified Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) updates as legitimate or suspicious with 92% accuracy, showing how AI can strengthen real-world cybersecurity systems while improving developer productivity.
⇒ For SPECTRO, this research reflects the project’s mission to connect AI, cybersecurity, and robotics in a way that equips students and professionals with the skills to shape Europe’s digital future responsibly.
