DeepStage: Learning Autonomous Defense Policies Against Multi-Stage APT Campaigns
This paper presents DeepStage, a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) framework for adaptive and stage-aware defense against Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs). The enterprise environment is formulated as a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP), in which host provenance and network telemetry are fused into unified provenance graphs. Building on our prior work (StageFinder), DeepStage employs a graph neural network encoder and an LSTM-based stage estimator to infer probabilistic attac
