  • 结合符号规则与隐私保护RAG,分两阶段处理邮件
  • 对AI生成钓鱼邮件召回率提升78.6点,误报率仅0.16%
  • 支持医疗等敏感领域部署,可调风险阈值适合不同场景

隐私敏感领域需兼顾零误报、解释透明、数据不外泄和抗生成攻击。现有规则系统易失效,大模型检测则泄露数据。我们提出CyberCane,一种神经符号框架,将轻量符号规则用于邮件元数据,异常样本转为语义分类,通过带自动脱敏的RAG从仅含钓鱼样本的语料库中检索并生成结果。引入PhishOnt OWL本体,支持形式化推理链实现可验证攻击分类。在DataPhish2025(12.3k封邮件;含人类/大模型生成)及Nazario/SpamAssassin上测试,相比纯符号检测,对AI生成威胁召回率提升78.6点,精度超98%,假阳性率低至0.16%。医疗部署预估投资回报率达542倍;开源代码见https://github.com/sbhakim/Cybercane。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Privacy-critical domains require phishing detection systems that satisfy contradictory constraints: near-zero false positives to prevent workflow disruption, transparent explanations for non-expert staff, strict regulatory compliance prohibiting sensitive data exposure to external APIs, and robustness against AI-generated attacks. Existing rule-based systems are brittle to novel campaigns, while LLM-based detectors violate privacy regulations through unredacted data transmission. We introduce CyberCane, a neuro-symbolic framework integrating deterministic symbolic analysis with privacy-preserving retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). Our dual-phase pipeline applies lightweight symbolic rules to email metadata, then escalates borderline cases to semantic classification via RAG with automated sensitive data redaction and retrieval from a phishing-only corpus. We further introduce PhishOnt, an OWL ontology enabling verifiable attack classification through formal reasoning chains. Evaluation on DataPhish2025 (12.3k emails; mixed human/LLM) and Nazario/SpamAssassin demonstrates a 78.6-point recall gain over symbolic-only detection on AI-generated threats, with precision exceeding 98% and FPR as low as 0.16%. Healthcare deployment projects a 542x ROI; tunable operating points support diverse risk tolerances, with open-source implementation at https://github.com/sbhakim/Cybercane.
