Build an Automated Cyber Incident Triage System with AutoGen and Pydantic AI

Financial institutions face persistent advanced threat tactics from state-sponsored cyber campaigns targeting core banking infrastructure. Build an AutoGen multi-agent system using Pydantic AI to ingest threat feeds, map IOCs against MITRE ATT&CK patterns, and generate actionable remediation playbooks. Achieve automated incident triage with under two-minute latency and high classification accuracy.

What you are building

Develop an AutoGen multi-agent conversational framework paired with Pydantic AI validation to process threat intelligence feeds and map attacks against banking assets.

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates the incident response agent's capacity to accurately map threat indicators to MITRE tactics and output structured playbooks.

Datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

How submissions are scored

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

valid_mitre_code_test

Checks if returned technique ID is a valid MITRE code

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

triage_precision

Precision in identifying correct threat severity and technique • target: 0.9 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

  • Construct multi-agent AutoGen conversations for security incident orchestration

  • Integrate Pydantic AI for type-safe alert structured parsing and validation

  • Automate mapping of raw log indicators (IOCs) to MITRE ATT&CK enterprise tactics

  • Generate context-aware remediation playbooks for SOC tier-2 analysts

Resources

Dataset notes

Dataset of 200 synthetic SOC log alerts simulating credential dumping and lateral movement targeting core banking servers.

Challenge setup

Evaluates the incident response agent's capacity to accurately map threat indicators to MITRE tactics and output structured playbooks.

Challenge input

Unstructured text payload containing firewall and system execution logs

AutoGen

Allows back-and-forth negotiation between analyst and supervisor agents.

Pydantic AI

Ensures output structured data adheres strict cybersecurity alert schemas.
