Awesome Automated Vulnerability Detection
Welcome to the Automated vulnerability detection (AVD) repo, maintained by the AI for Cyber Defence Research Center at the Alan Turing Institute. Automated vulnerability detection (AVD) is an emerging research field aiming to automatically detect security vulnerabilities in software without human intervention. Compared to previous labour-intensive approaches such as code reviews and security audits, accurate AVD solutions enable the scalable detection of vulnerabilities, which facilitates further vulnerability analysis tasks such as exploitation and patching.
The following is a curated list of research papers, datasets, and resources in the field of AVD.
