# CatQualia security methods — offensive technique catalogue with matching defence

**2,805 rows** · 2,823,728 bytes · JSON Lines.

## What this is

Paired security material. Offensive rows carry a MITRE ATT&CK identifier, a phase, how the technique works, and — importantly — a `use_case` list that includes `our-surfaces`, i.e. the rows are written to be run against the author's own estate before anyone else's. Defensive rows pair a threat with a detection method, a hardening step, and a grade measured against the author's own code; several grade his own modules CRITICAL. Refusal and jailbreak-resistance corpora are included as the boundary half of the same material.

> **Note.** This is defensive security research with an offensive catalogue inside it. The offensive rows are MITRE-mapped techniques that are public knowledge; what the corpus adds is the pairing and the self-grading. It is included on that basis, and it is the group a reader should weigh first.

## Provenance

This group merges 11 source corpora. Every row carries a `_source_dataset` field
naming the file it came from, so the grouping is reversible:

- `offensive_methods_2` — 2,055 rows
- `offensive_methods` — 72 rows
- `offensive_methods_re` — 18 rows
- `defensive_methods` — 384 rows
- `defensive_mirror` — 34 rows
- `refusal_dataset` — 39 rows
- `refusal_corpus_2` — 15 rows
- `jailbreak_resistance` — 25 rows
- `adversarial_corpus` — 81 rows
- `alien_technique` — 55 rows
- `alien_cyber_security` — 27 rows

## Measured

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Rows | 2,805 |
| Bytes | 2,823,728 |
| Source corpora merged | 11 |
| Distinct top-level fields | 13 |

Counted with `wc -l` against the file staged here. Absolute machine paths were rewritten to
portable tokens (`<<TREES>>`, `<<WME>>`, `<<DRIVE>>`, `<<HOME>>`) and the row count verified
unchanged by that rewrite.

## Known limitations

- **Synthetic and self-graded.** Grades, judgements and notes come from the author's own
  pipeline, not independent annotation.
- **Small per source.** Several constituent corpora are single-digit rows.
- **`_source_dataset` is added by this packaging**, not present in the originals.
- **Not peer-reviewed or independently evaluated.**
- **Security group only:** the offensive rows are public MITRE-mapped techniques; the corpus's
  contribution is the pairing and the self-grading, not new offensive capability.
