SOC Narrative SFT — Qwen3-14B (Final)

  

LoRA adapter for Qwen/Qwen3-14B trained with SFT LoRA on 512 balanced user/day windows (CERT R4.2) (final (step 86)).

Description

SOC Narrative is a framework for insider threat detection using small open-weight LLMs. A model receives a user/day window of events from the CERT Insider Threat Dataset R4.2 and must produce a structured response with:

• —Risk label: normal, suspicious, or malicious
• —Evidence: cited event IDs supporting the decision
• —Reasoning: brief explanation of the investigation logic

This project explores whether small LLMs (3B–14B) can match or exceed traditional ML baselines for UEBA (User and Entity Behavior Analytics).

Metrics

Evaluation results for this checkpoint are not yet available. See the project repo for details.

Quick Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

base = "Qwen/Qwen3-14B"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(base, torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto")
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(model, "Pankei/soc-narrative-sft-final-qwen3-14b")

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(base)
inputs = tokenizer("<your prompt>", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
output = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=256)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0]))

Note: This is a LoRA adapter (~30–160 MB). You need the full base model (Qwen/Qwen3-14B) to load it.

Training Details

• —Base model: Qwen/Qwen3-14B
• —Method: SFT LoRA
• —Train data: 512 balanced user/day windows (CERT R4.2)
• —Checkpoint: final (step 86)
• —LoRA rank: 32, alpha: 64, target modules: qproj, kproj, vproj, oproj
• —Format: Structured SOC Narrative (risk + evidence + reasoning)
• —Hardware: NVIDIA H100 (80 GB)

Limitations

• —Evaluated on a small balanced sample (n=50) — results may not generalize to production distributions
• —Final checkpoint after extended training. Evaluation on devbalanced50 pending.
• —Dataset is based on synthetic insider threat scenarios from CERT R4.2 (2016) — real-world performance may differ
