This paper studies defense mechanisms against model inversion (MI) attacks -- a type of privacy attacks aimed at inferring information about the training data distribution given the access to a target machine learning model. Existing defense mechanisms rely on model-specific heuristics or noise injection. While being able to mitigate attacks, existing methods significantly hinder model performance. There remains a question of how to design a defense mechanism that is applicable to a variety of models and achieves better utility-privacy tradeoff. In this paper, we propose the Mutual Information Regularization based Defense (MID) against MI attacks. The key idea is to limit the information about the model input contained in the prediction, thereby limiting the ability of an adversary to infer the private training attributes from the model prediction. Our defense principle is model-agnostic and we present tractable approximations to the regularizer for linear regression, decision trees, and neural networks, which have been successfully attacked by prior work if not attached with any defenses. We present a formal study of MI attacks by devising a rigorous game-based definition and quantifying the associated information leakage. Our theoretical analysis sheds light on the inefficacy of DP in defending against MI attacks, which has been empirically observed in several prior works. Our experiments demonstrate that MID leads to state-of-the-art performance for a variety of MI attacks, target models and datasets.

Neural networks are susceptible to data inference attacks such as the model inversion attack and the membership inference attack, where the attacker could infer the reconstruction and the membership of a data sample from the confidence scores predict
ed by the target classifier. In this paper, we propose a unified approach, namely purification framework, to defend data inference attacks. It purifies the confidence score vectors predicted by the target classifier by reducing their dispersion. The purifier can be further specialized in defending a particular attack via adversarial learning. We evaluate our approach on benchmark datasets and classifiers. We show that when the purifier is dedicated to one attack, it naturally defends the other one, which empirically demonstrates the connection between the two attacks. The purifier can effectively defend both attacks. For example, it can reduce the membership inference accuracy by up to 15% and increase the model inversion error by a factor of up to 4. Besides, it incurs less than 0.4% classification accuracy drop and less than 5.5% distortion to the confidence scores.
Increasing use of ML technologies in privacy-sensitive domains such as medical diagnoses, lifestyle predictions, and business decisions highlights the need to better understand if these ML technologies are introducing leakages of sensitive and propri
etary training data. In this paper, we focus on one kind of model inversion attacks, where the adversary knows non-sensitive attributes about instances in the training data and aims to infer the value of a sensitive attribute unknown to the adversary, using oracle access to the target classification model. We devise two novel model inversion attribute inference attacks -- confidence modeling-based attack and confidence score-based attack, and also extend our attack to the case where some of the other (non-sensitive) attributes are unknown to the adversary. Furthermore, while previous work uses accuracy as the metric to evaluate the effectiveness of attribute inference attacks, we find that accuracy is not informative when the sensitive attribute distribution is unbalanced. We identify two metrics that are better for evaluating attribute inference attacks, namely G-mean and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC). We evaluate our attacks on two types of machine learning models, decision tree and deep neural network, trained with two real datasets. Experimental results show that our newly proposed attacks significantly outperform the state-of-the-art attacks. Moreover, we empirically show that specific groups in the training dataset (grouped by attributes, e.g., gender, race) could be more vulnerable to model inversion attacks. We also demonstrate that our attacks performances are not impacted significantly when some of the other (non-sensitive) attributes are also unknown to the adversary.
To this date, CAPTCHAs have served as the first line of defense preventing unauthorized access by (malicious) bots to web-based services, while at the same time maintaining a trouble-free experience for human visitors. However, recent work in the lit
erature has provided evidence of sophisticated bots that make use of advancements in machine learning (ML) to easily bypass existing CAPTCHA-based defenses. In this work, we take the first step to address this problem. We introduce CAPTURE, a novel CAPTCHA scheme based on adversarial examples. While typically adversarial examples are used to lead an ML model astray, with CAPTURE, we attempt to make a good use of such mechanisms. Our empirical evaluations show that CAPTURE can produce CAPTCHAs that are easy to solve by humans while at the same time, effectively thwarting ML-based bot solvers.
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been proven vulnerable to backdoor attacks, where hidden features (patterns) trained to a normal model, which is only activated by some specific input (called triggers), trick the model into producing unexpected behav
ior. In this paper, we create covert and scattered triggers for backdoor attacks, invisible backdoors, where triggers can fool both DNN models and human inspection. We apply our invisible backdoors through two state-of-the-art methods of embedding triggers for backdoor attacks. The first approach on Badnets embeds the trigger into DNNs through steganography. The second approach of a trojan attack uses two types of additional regularization terms to generate the triggers with irregular shape and size. We use the Attack Success Rate and Functionality to measure the performance of our attacks. We introduce two novel definitions of invisibility for human perception; one is conceptualized by the Perceptual Adversarial Similarity Score (PASS) and the other is Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity (LPIPS). We show that the proposed invisible backdoors can be fairly effective across various DNN models as well as four datasets MNIST, CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and GTSRB, by measuring their attack success rates for the adversary, functionality for the normal users, and invisibility scores for the administrators. We finally argue that the proposed invisible backdoor attacks can effectively thwart the state-of-the-art trojan backdoor detection approaches, such as Neural Cleanse and TABOR.
Adversarial examples can deceive a deep neural network (DNN) by significantly altering its response with imperceptible perturbations, which poses new potential vulnerabilities as the growing ubiquity of DNNs. However, most of the existing adversarial
examples cannot maintain the malicious functionality if we apply an affine transformation on the resultant examples, which is an important measurement to the robustness of adversarial attacks for the practical risks. To address this issue, we propose an affine-invariant adversarial attack which can consistently construct adversarial examples robust over a distribution of affine transformation. To further improve the efficiency, we propose to disentangle the affine transformation into rotations, translations, magnifications, and reformulate the transformation in polar space. Afterwards, we construct an affine-invariant gradient estimator by convolving the gradient at the original image with derived kernels, which can be integrated with any gradient-based attack methods. Extensive experiments on the ImageNet demonstrate that our method can consistently produce more robust adversarial examples under significant affine transformations, and as a byproduct, improve the transferability of adversarial examples compared with the alternative state-of-the-art methods.
