Abstract
Recently, we are attending to the proliferation of Cloud Computing (CC) as the new trending internet-based-Platform. Thanks to the outsourcing paradigm, CC is enabling many services. Software as a Service (SaaS) is one of those cloud-based-services. Indeed, SaaS model allows providers to reduce the cost of maintenance and management by transferring traditional on premise deployment to public Cloud. Clients can subscribe, in self-service, to SaaS services based on a pay-per-use model. However, since user data are outsourced to the Cloud, serious security breaches are rising and could harm the reputation of providers and slow down the subscription of clients. SQL injection attack (SQLIA) is one of the most critical SaaS vulnerabilities that allows attackers to violate the availability, confidentiality and integrity of user data. In this paper, we propose SQL injection intrusion detection framework as a service for SaaS providers, SQLIIDaaS, which allows a SaaS provider to detect SQLIAs targeting several SaaS applications without reading, analyzing or modifying the source code. To achieve SQL query/HTTP request mapping, we propose an event correlation based on the similarity between literals in SQL queries and parameters in HTTP requests. SQLIIDaaS is integrated and validated in Amazon Web Services (AWS). A SaaS provider can subscribe to this framework and launch its own set of virtual machines, which holds on-demand self-service, resource pooling, rapid elasticity, and measured service properties.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
