# Primus: A Pioneering Collection of Open-Source Datasets for Cybersecurity LLM Training
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/PtqeTZw.png" alt="Primus Overview" width="60%">
**First cybersecurity reasoning model!**
>TL;DR: Llama-Primus-Reasoning is a reasoning model distilled from the reasoning steps with reflection data generated by o1-preview on cybersecurity tasks (_Primus-Reasoning_), based on Llama-Primus-Merged. It demonstrates a 🚀**10%** improvement in security certification (CISSP).
**🔥 For more details, please refer to the paper: [[📄Paper]](https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.11191).**
## Introduction
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable versatility in recent years, with promising applications in specialized domains such as finance, law, and biomedicine. However, in the domain of cybersecurity, we noticed a lack of open-source datasets specifically designed for LLM pre-training—even though much research has shown that LLMs acquire their knowledge during pre-training. To fill this gap, we present a collection of datasets covering multiple stages of cybersecurity LLM training, including pre-training (_Primus-Seed_ and _Primus-FineWeb_), instruction fine-tuning (_Primus-Instruct_), and reasoning data for distillation (_Primus-Reasoning_). Based on these datasets and Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct, we developed _Llama-Primus-Base_, _Llama-Primus-Merged_, and _Llama-Primus-Reasoning_. This model card is **Llama-Primus-Reasoning**.
