Research Case Study

Sentinel-Mesh

A neuro-symbolic research framework: an LLM proposes Terraform fixes, and a Z3 SMT verifier accepts only patches that provably satisfy cloud security invariants.

Lead author and developer. Research Square preprint; the manuscript is under review. Read the research case study, including the architecture, evaluation, and limitations.

CloudFix-Bench

A benchmark of 105 AWS Terraform misconfiguration patterns across 8 infrastructure pillars and 60+ AWS service types, built to evaluate Sentinel-Mesh against a Checkov baseline, a no-witness ablation, and an external set of 12 real-world cases. Archived on Zenodo for reproducibility.
