Recent attacks on federated learning demonstrate that keeping the training data on clients devices does not provide sufficient privacy, as the model parameters shared by clients can leak information about their training data. A secure aggregation protocol enables the server to aggregate clients models in a privacy-preserving manner. However, existing secure aggregation protocols incur high computation/communication costs, especially when the number of model parameters is larger than the number of clients participating in an iteration -- a typical scenario in federated learning. In this paper, we propose a secure aggregation protocol, FastSecAgg, that is efficient in terms of computation and communication, and robust to client dropouts. The main building block of FastSecAgg is a novel multi-secret sharing scheme, FastShare, based on the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), which may be of independent interest. FastShare is information-theoretically secure, and achieves a trade-off between the number of secrets, privacy threshold, and dropout tolerance. Riding on the capabilities of FastShare, we prove that FastSecAgg is (i) secure against the server colluding with any subset of some constant fraction (e.g. $sim10%$) of the clients in the honest-but-curious setting; and (ii) tolerates dropouts of a random subset of some constant fraction (e.g. $sim10%$) of the clients. FastSecAgg achieves significantly smaller computation cost than existing schemes while achieving the same (orderwise) communication cost. In addition, it guarantees security against adaptive adversaries, which can perform client corruptions dynamically during the execution of the protocol.
Federated analytics has many applications in edge computing, its use can lead to better decision making for service provision, product development, and user experience. We propose a Bayesian approach to trend detection in which the probability of a k
Federated learning (FL) has enabled training models collaboratively from multiple data owning parties without sharing their data. Given the privacy regulations of patients healthcare data, learning-based systems in healthcare can greatly benefit from
In this paper, we address the problem of privacy-preserving distributed learning and the evaluation of machine-learning models by analyzing it in the widespread MapReduce abstraction that we extend with privacy constraints. We design SPINDLE (Scalabl
Federated learning enables one to train a common machine learning model across separate, privately-held datasets via distributed model training. During federated training, only intermediate model parameters are transmitted to a central server which a
In this paper, we address the problem of privacy-preserving training and evaluation of neural networks in an $N$-party, federated learning setting. We propose a novel system, POSEIDON, the first of its kind in the regime of privacy-preserving neural
