RedTeamAI: A Benchmark for Assessing Autonomous Cybersecurity Agents

This paper introduces RedTeamAI, a novel benchmark designed to rigorously evaluate the cybersecurity capabilities of autonomous agents powered by large language models.RedTeamAI provides a structured environment with diversecybersecurity challenges, ranging from vulnerability discoveryto exploit development, enabling detailed assessment of agentperformance. The benchmark facilitates the analysis of agentstrengths and weaknesses in offensive security scenarios, contributing to a deeper understanding of the potential risks andapplications of AI in cybersecurity. Experimental results demonstrate the framework’s utility in characterizing the adversarialproficiency of current language model agents.
