Deep Learning has recently become hugely popular in machine learning, providing significant improvements in classification accuracy in the presence of highly-structured and large databases. Researchers have also considered privacy implications of deep learning. Models are typically trained in a centralized manner with all the data being processed by the same training algorithm. If the data is a collection of users private data, including habits, personal pictures, geographical positions, interests, and more, the centralized server will have access to sensitive information that could potentially be mishandled. To tackle this problem, collaborative deep learning models have recently been proposed where parties locally train their deep learning structures and only share a subset of the parameters in the attempt to keep their respective training sets private. Parameters can also be obfuscated via differential privacy (DP) to make information extraction even more challenging, as proposed by Shokri and Shmatikov at CCS15. Unfortunately, we show that any privacy-preserving collaborative deep learning is susceptible to a powerful attack that we devise in this paper. In particular, we show that a distributed, federated, or decentralized deep learning approach is fundamentally broken and does not protect the training sets of honest participants. The attack we developed exploits the real-time nature of the learning process that allows the adversary to train a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) that generates prototypical samples of the targeted training set that was meant to be private (the samples generated by the GAN are intended to come from the same distribution as the training data). Interestingly, we show that record-level DP applied to the shared parameters of the model, as suggested in previous work, is ineffective (i.e., record-level DP is not designed to address our attack).

For distributed machine learning with sensitive data, we demonstrate how minimizing distance correlation between raw data and intermediary representations reduces leakage of sensitive raw data patterns across client communications while maintaining model accuracy. Leakage (measured using distance correlation between input and intermediate representations) is the risk associated with the invertibility of raw data from intermediary representations. This can prevent client entities that hold sensitive data from using distributed deep learning services. We demonstrate that our method is resilient to such reconstruction attacks and is based on reduction of distance correlation between raw data and learned representations during training and inference with image datasets. We prevent such reconstruction of raw data while maintaining information required to sustain good classification accuracies.
Recently, information cascade prediction has attracted increasing interest from researchers, but it is far from being well solved partly due to the three defects of the existing works. First, the existing works often assume an underlying information diffusion model, which is impractical in real world due to the complexity of information diffusion. Second, the existing works often ignore the prediction of the infection order, which also plays an important role in social network analysis. At last, the existing works often depend on the requirement of underlying diffusion networks which are likely unobservable in practice. In this paper, we aim at the prediction of both node infection and infection order without requirement of the knowledge about the underlying diffusion mechanism and the diffusion network, where the challenges are two-fold. The first is what cascading characteristics of nodes should be captured and how to capture them, and the second is that how to model the non-linear features of nodes in information cascades. To address these challenges, we propose a novel model called Deep Collaborative Embedding (DCE) for information cascade prediction, which can capture not only the node structural property but also two kinds of node cascading characteristics. We propose an auto-encoder based collaborative embedding framework to learn the node embeddings with cascade collaboration and node collaboration, in which way the non-linearity of information cascades can be effectively captured. The results of extensive experiments conducted on real-world datasets verify the effectiveness of our approach.
Intuitively, a backdoor attack against Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) is to inject hidden malicious behaviors into DNNs such that the backdoor model behaves legitimately for benign inputs, yet invokes a predefined malicious behavior when its input contains a malicious trigger. The trigger can take a plethora of forms, including a special object present in the image (e.g., a yellow pad), a shape filled with custom textures (e.g., logos with particular colors) or even image-wide stylizations with special filters (e.g., images altered by Nashville or Gotham filters). These filters can be applied to the original image by replacing or perturbing a set of image pixels.
State-of-the-art password guessing tools, such as HashCat and John the Ripper, enable users to check billions of passwords per second against password hashes. In addition to performing straightforward dictionary attacks, these tools can expand password dictionaries using password generation rules, such as concatenation of words (e.g., password123456) and leet speak (e.g., password becomes p4s5w0rd). Although these rules work well in practice, expanding them to model further passwords is a laborious task that requires specialized expertise. To address this issue, in this paper we introduce PassGAN, a novel approach that replaces human-generated password rules with theory-grounded machine learning algorithms. Instead of relying on manual password analysis, PassGAN uses a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) to autonomously learn the distribution of real passwords from actual password leaks, and to generate high-quality password guesses. Our experiments show that this approach is very promising. When we evaluated PassGAN on two large password datasets, we were able to surpass rule-based and state-of-the-art machine learning password guessing tools. However, in contrast with the other tools, PassGAN achieved this result without any a-priori knowledge on passwords or common password structures. Additionally, when we combined the output of PassGAN with the output of HashCat, we were able to match 51%-73% more passwords than with HashCat alone. This is remarkable, because it shows that PassGAN can autonomously extract a considerable number of password properties that current state-of-the art rules do not encode.
With the popularity of deep learning (DL), artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied in many areas of human life. Neural network or artificial neural network (NN), the main technique behind DL, has been extensively studied to facilitate computer vision and natural language recognition. However, the more we rely on information technology, the more vulnerable we are. That is, malicious NNs could bring huge threat in the so-called coming AI era. In this paper, for the first time in the literature, we propose a novel approach to design and insert powerful neural-level trojans or PoTrojan in pre-trained NN models. Most of the time, PoTrojans remain inactive, not affecting the normal functions of their host NN models. PoTrojans could only be triggered in very rare conditions. Once activated, however, the PoTrojans could cause the host NN models to malfunction, either falsely predicting or classifying, which is a significant threat to human society of the AI era. We would explain the principles of PoTrojans and the easiness of designing and inserting them in pre-trained deep learning models. PoTrojans doesnt modify the existing architecture or parameters of the pre-trained models, without re-training. Hence, the proposed method is very efficient.
