| # HumanWill Cybersecurity Benchmark |
|
|
| **Measuring harmful refusals in AI models.** |
|
|
| 424 questions for evaluating **false refusal and judged answer usefulness** on |
| legitimate corporate cybersecurity tasks. For security teams selecting AI for |
| real workflows and researchers studying when models withhold eligible assistance. |
|
|
| [Framework and CLI on GitHub](https://github.com/humanwill-ai/humanwill-benchmark) · [Interactive results](https://huggingface.co/spaces/humanwill-ai/cybersecurity-benchmark) · [Full report (PDF)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/humanwill-ai/humanwill-benchmark/main/reports/cybersecurity/v0.1.1/humanwill-cybersecurity-report-v0.1.1.pdf) · [HumanWill](https://humanwill.ai) |

|
| ## What is included |
|
|
| | Topic | Questions | |
| | --- | ---: | |
| | Vulnerability validation | 81 | |
| | Source-code security | 84 | |
| | Binary investigation | 80 | |
| | Network investigation | 89 | |
| | Filesystem and artifact investigation | 90 | |
| | **Total** | **424** | |
|
|
| Question and delivery version **0.1.0**. The [pack/0.1.0](pack/0.1.0) directory |
| mirrors all ten approved delivery files from the public GitHub repository byte |
| for byte, including prompts, supplied evidence, provenance, policy and notices. |
| The top-level `questions.jsonl` is a derived tabular view for Hugging Face browsing; |
| it preserves every system/user message verbatim. Original pack files are canonical. |
| No model responses, historical judgments or private HTTP captures are included. |
|
|
| ## Load the questions |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| |
| questions = load_dataset("humanwill-ai/cybersecurity-initial424", split="test") |
| print(len(questions)) # 424 |
| ``` |
|
|
| The `test` split identifies evaluation use. There is no training/validation split, |
| no reference-answer column and no claim that these public questions are |
| contamination-free. `expected_behavior` is a case expectation, not a model score. |
|
|
| To run HumanWill, follow the [reference benchmark quick start](https://github.com/humanwill-ai/humanwill-benchmark/blob/main/docs/REFERENCE_BENCHMARK.md). |
| The Git checkout includes the same pack. CLI and agent users share the operation |
| API; both support saved evidence, selective retries and inspectable policies. |
| Provider calls require your own credentials and may incur charges. Loading this |
| dataset does not call a model. You can extend the pack with your own questions and |
| customize domain/topic judging criteria through the framework. |
|
|
| ## Viewer fields |
|
|
| | Field | Meaning | |
| | --- | --- | |
| | `id` | Original case identifier; unchanged | |
| | `family`, `topic` | Original family code and its descriptive display name | |
| | `system_prompt`, `user_prompt` | Exact original messages, including supplied evidence | |
| | `expected_behavior` | Original case expectation | |
| | `criteria_json` | Original criteria encoded as a JSON string | |
| | `provenance_json` | Original provenance encoded as a JSON string | |
| | `origin_json` | Original snapshot/record hashes encoded as a JSON string | |
|
|
| JSON-string fields avoid changing the original nested metadata to fit a table. |
| `VIEWER_PROVENANCE.json` documents this conversion. Use the bundled manifest and |
| cases with the CLI; the viewer table itself is not a HumanWill pack manifest. |
|
|
| ## Construction, review and limitations |
|
|
| The set combines 100 original questions with 324 cases selected after Astra |
| blocking during discovery. It is a selected challenge set, not a vendor-neutral |
| random sample or an estimate of everyday refusal rates. Related mechanisms may |
| recur across cases. Question construction is HumanWill AI-assisted authorship, |
| as recorded in the original provenance. |
|
|
| The owner accepted the internal review of all 424 questions and the exact bundled |
| policy on 19 September 2026, with self-declared expertise. This is not an |
| independently verified external audit, provider approval or certification. |
| See [REVIEW_STATUS.json](pack/0.1.0/REVIEW_STATUS.json). |
|
|
| False refusal and usefulness are separate measures. An incomplete answer is not |
| automatically a refusal; uncertainty and justified limits require contextual |
| assessment. This assistance-focused pack does **not** establish harmful-compliance |
| performance, verified task success or overall model safety. |
|
|
| The [frozen report](https://github.com/humanwill-ai/humanwill-benchmark/tree/main/reports/cybersecurity/v0.1.1) compares 13 model configurations on this set. Its |
| rates exclude unclassified outcomes, retain incomplete Meta/Gemini coverage and |
| consolidate retries. The report uses results version **0.1.1**, distinct from this |
| question-pack version. The bundled reference policy is not a promise to reproduce |
| historical judge requests or scores. Consult the report for the exact method. |
|
|
| Original pack README/license prose includes historical private-access and review- |
| preparation language. Those files are deliberately unchanged; current public |
| access is through this mirror and [the product repository](https://github.com/humanwill-ai/humanwill-benchmark). This card |
| records the current access state without rewriting the reviewed artifacts. |
