Cybersecurity Data Extraction from Common Crawl (arxiv.org)

In plain words: A cybersecurity dataset was gathered in one pass by finding clusters of related sites in the web graph, starting from just 20 trusted domains. This pulls in quality sites from who links to whom, instead of repeatedly scoring page text like the usual approach.

Abstract

Alpha-Root is a cybersecurity-focused dataset collected in a single shot from the Common Crawl web graph using community detection. Unlike iterative content-scoring approaches like DeepSeekMath, we mine quality domains directly from the web graph, starting from just 20 trusted seed domains.
