• Abstract: In an era where cyberspace is both a battleground and a backbone of modern society, the urgency of safeguarding digital assets against ever-evolving threats is paramount. This paper introduces Cyber Sentinel, an innovative task-oriented cybersecurity dialogue system that is effectively capable of managing two core functions: explaining potential cyber threats within an organization to the user, and taking proactive/reactive security actions when instructed by the user. Cyber Sentinel embodies the fusion of artificial intelligence, cybersecurity domain expertise, and real-time data analysis to combat the multifaceted challenges posed by cyber adversaries. This article delves into the process of creating such a system and how it can interact with other components typically found in cybersecurity organizations. Our work is a novel approach to task-oriented dialogue systems, leveraging the power of chaining GPT-4 models combined with prompt engineering across all sub-tasks. We also highlight its pivotal role in enhancing cybersecurity communication and interaction, concluding that not only does this framework enhance the system's transparency (Explainable AI) but also streamlines the decision-making process and responding to threats (Actionable AI), therefore marking a significant advancement in the realm of cybersecurity communication.
