🧠 CyberPII-Bench
CyberPII-Bench is a benchmark designed to evaluate the ability of LLM models to maintain privacy and handle Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in cybersecurity contexts. Built from real-world data generated during offensive hands-on exercises conducted with CAI (Cybersecurity AI), focusing on attack simulation, security testing, and reconnaissance scenarios.
📁 Dataset: memory01_80/
- Size: 79 entries
- Source & Topics: Extracted from interactive logs generated during CAI-driven cybersecurity exercises—simulating realistic workflows and operator-model interactions—this dataset obtain information from logs on: Robotics, Portswigger (Burp Suite), HackerOne, and Hack The Box (HTB) machines.
Each row in the dataset includes the following columns:
- id: Unique identifier for the data sample.
- source_text: The original input or prompt given during the interaction.
- target_text: The expected or sanitized output text, where PII entities are replaced with their corresponding tags (e.g., [URL]).
- span_labels: Span-based annotations for PII in the target_text, expressed as start🔚ENTITY_TYPE. Multiple spans are separated by semicolons. Example: 210:215:URL means characters from index 210 to 215 are annotated as a URL.
- mbert_bio_labels: Token-level labels in the BIO format (Beginning, Inside, Outside), aligned with multilingual BERT tokenization. This is used for sequence tagging tasks.
- source: The origin or context of the sample, indicating which task or dataset it came from (e.g., pentestperf, htb, portswigger).
- others: Additional metadata or context in dictionary format (e.g., user/system role, environment context). Useful for analysis or filtering during experiments.

🔍 Entity Coverage
The benchmark targets a wide range of PII categories. Annotators are expected to identify and sanitize the following entities:
PERSON
PHONE_NUMBER
LOCATION
CREDIT_CARD
CRYPTO
IBAN_CODE
IP_ADDRESS
EMAIL_ADDRESS
URL
DATE_TIME
NIF
MEDICAL_LICENSE
US_SSN
US_BANK_NUMBER
US_DRIVER_LICENSE
US_ITIN
US_PASSPORT
ORGANIZATION
ADDRESS
NRP
DNI
NIE
IBAN
EUROPEAN_BANK_ACCOUNT
This is an example of how a text sould be sanitized:
"Contact Mikel at mikel@example.com" → "Contact [PERSON] at [EMAIL_ADDRESS]"
Some annotation rules:
- Each detected entity should be sanitized using the format: [ENTITY_TYPE]
- Priorize IP_ADDRESS to URL:
https://192.168.2.100is anonimized like this:https://[IP_ADDRESS]:5050instead of [URL] - DATE_TIME is used for dates and for times, in this case
2025-03-11 11:41 UTCit sould be anonimized like this:[DATE_TIME] [DATE_TIME]
If you have any questions about the annotation, please write to us.
📐 Metrics
To evaluate the performance of our anonymization system, we use standard information retrieval metrics focused on correctly detecting and anonymizing sensitive entities:
- True Positives (TP): Correctly anonymized entities
- False Positives (FP): Incorrectly anonymized entities (false alarms)
- False Negatives (FN): Missed sensitive entities (misses)
Precision
Precision measures how many of the entities we anonymized were actually correct.
High precision = fewer false alarms
Precision = TP / (TP + FP)
Recall
Recall measures how many of the sensitive entities were actually detected and anonymized.
High recall = fewer misses
Recall = TP / (TP + FN)
F1 Score
Balanced metric when false positives and false negatives are equally important.
F1 = 2 * (Precision * Recall) / (Precision + Recall)
F2 Score
Favors recall more than precision — useful when missing sensitive data is riskier than over-anonymizing.
F2 = (1 + 2^2)* (Precision * Recall) / (2^2 * Precision + Recall)
F1 vs F2
In privacy-focused scenarios, missing sensitive data (FN) can be much more dangerous than over-anonymizing non-sensitive content (FP).
Thus, F2 is prioritized over F1 to reflect this risk in our evaluations.
📊 Evaluation
To compute annotation quality and consistency across systems, use the provided Python script:
python metrics.py --input_csv_path /path/to/input.csv --annotator [alias0, ...]
The input CSV file must contain the following columns:
- id: Unique row identifier
- target_text: The original text from memory01_80 dataseto be annotated
- target_text_{annotator}_sanitized: The sanitized version of the text produced by each annotator
The output will be a folder with:
