Abstract
Securing Next Generation Networks (NGNs) remains a prominent topic of discussion in academia and industries alike, driven by the rapid evolution of cyber attacks. As these attacks become increasingly complex and dynamic, it is crucial to develop sophisticated security strategies with automated dynamic policy enforcement. In this paper, we propose a security strategy based on the zero-trust model, incorporating dynamic policy decisions through the utilization of stochastic games and Reinforcement Learning (RL). Our approach involves the development of an attack and defense strategy evolution model, specifically tailored to combat cyber attacks in NGNs. To achieve this, we employ RL techniques to update and adapt dynamic policies. To train the agents, we utilize the Generalized Proximal Policy Optimization with sample reuse (GePPO) algorithm, including its modified version, GePPO-ML, which incorporates meta-learning to initialize the agent’s policy and parameters. Additionally, we employ the Sample Dropout PPO with meta-learning (SDPPO-ML), a modified version of the SD-PPO algorithm, to train the agents. To evaluate the performance of these algorithms, we conduct a comparative analysis against the REINFORCE and PPO algorithms. The results illustrate the superior performance of both GePPO-ML and SDPPO-ML when compared to these baseline algorithms, with GePPO-ML exhibiting the best performance.

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
