AEGIS: Adversarial Entropy-Guided Immune System -- Thermodynamic State Space Models for Zero-Day Network Evasion Detection

ArXi:2604.02149v1 Announce Type: cross As TLS 1.3 encryption limits traditional Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), the security community has pivoted to Euclidean Transformer-based classifiers (e.g., ET-BERT) for encrypted traffic analysis. However, these models remain vulnerable to byte-level adversarial morphing -- recent pre-padding attacks reduced ET-BERT accuracy to 25.68%, while VLESS Reality bypasses certificate-based detection entirely. We
