| contents | Cybersecurity Knowledge Graphs (CKGs) unify diverse Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) sources into structured, queryable formats, offering scalable solutions for automating proactive and real-time security responses. Their increasing adoption has significantly enhanced the workflow and decision-making efficiency of security professionals. However, constructing CKGs requires extracting entity-relation triples from unstructured CTI reports, a task hindered by complex report structure, domain-specific language, and semantic ambiguity. As a result, existing pipeline-based approaches often suffer from error propagation, reducing extraction accuracy and limiting generalizability. This paper introduces the Context-aware Threat Intelligence Knowledge Graph (CTiKG) framework, a pipeline architecture designed to accurately extract and classify threat entities and their relationships from CTI reports. CTiKG incorporates hybrid NLP models that leverage SecureBERT+ contextual embeddings and expert knowledge from a domain ontology to reduce misclassifications and mitigate cascading errors. Experiments on the DNRTI-AUG-STIX2 dataset, which comprises 21 entity types aligned with STIX 2.1, demonstrate significant improvements over state-of-the-art baselines, yielding 3-4% gains in NER and up to 8% in RE performance, based on precision, recall, and F1-score. Additional validation on DNRTI and STUCCO benchmarks confirms the framework's robustness and practical applicability. All datasets, including the curated DNRTI-AUG-STIX2, are released on GitHub to foster reproducibility and further research. |
