  Abstract

EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) logs, which include various abnormal activities observed across the network, provide critical information for cyber threat detection. However, their fragmented event structure and diverse representation hinder precise and consistent automated interpretation at the TTP (Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures) level. This study proposes an integrated analysis framework that semantically structures log-based abnormal behaviors and automates both TTP mapping and attack flow interpretation. To achieve this, raw logs are first normalized into natural language descriptions using a domain-specific rule set and then classified for anomalies via LogBERT. These descriptions are semantically enhanced using a large language model (LLM), and relevant TTP candidates are retrieved through FAISS-based similarity search. Finally, the most appropriate TTP is determined through Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, and a structured attack chain is automatically reconstructed based on temporal and relational analysis to support the strategic understanding of threat scenarios.
