Open source cybersecurity assistant powered by LLMs — audit, improve, and secure your organizational policies.
CyberForge helps you analyze and improve your company’s policies using large language models (LLMs). Using a self-hosted model in Mistral, CyberForge emables interactions with an AI assistant to obtain detailed insights about your policies.
- 🔍 Analyze policies in-depth
- 🤖 Context-aware AI agent assistant powered by your own documents
- 🔌 Flexible LLM support (Mistral 7B through Ollama)
