Title: Sample-Efficient LLM-Based Detection of Malicious Web Server Logs with Forensically Explainable Reasoning
Abstract:
arXiv:2606.08649v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Forensic analysis of web server logs demands both accurate detection and human-readable explanations that can satisfy legal requirements. We present CEF-Log, a context-enhanced few-shot chain-of-thought prompting strategy for Large Language Models that addresses this dual requirement. CEF-Log embeds expert investigative methodology through a structured five-step reasoning template, enabling the model to learn \textit{how} to analyze logs rather t
