Federated learning (FL) is a promising privacy-preserving distributed machine learning methodology that allows multiple clients (i.e., workers) to collaboratively train statistical models without disclosing private training data. Due to the characteristics of data remaining localized and the uninspected on-device training process, there may exist Byzantine workers launching data poisoning and model poisoning attacks, which would seriously deteriorate model performance or prevent the model from convergence. Most of the existing Byzantine-robust FL schemes are either ineffective against several advanced poisoning attacks or need to centralize a public validation dataset, which is intractable in FL. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, none of the existing Byzantine-robust distributed learning methods could well exert its power in Non-Independent and Identically distributed (Non-IID) data among clients. To address these issues, we propose FedCom, a novel Byzantine-robust federated learning framework by incorporating the idea of commitment from cryptography, which could achieve both data poisoning and model poisoning tolerant FL under practical Non-IID data partitions. Specifically, in FedCom, each client is first required to make a commitment to its local training data distribution. Then, we identify poisoned datasets by comparing the Wasserstein distance among commitments submitted by different clients. Furthermore, we distinguish abnormal local model updates from benign ones by testing each local models behavior on its corresponding data commitment. We conduct an extensive performance evaluation of FedCom. The results demonstrate its effectiveness and superior performance compared to the state-of-the-art Byzantine-robust schemes in defending against typical data poisoning and model poisoning attacks under practical Non-IID data distributions.

Federated Learning (FL) enables multiple distributed clients (e.g., mobile devices) to collaboratively train a centralized model while keeping the training data locally on the client. Compared to traditional centralized machine learning, FL offers ma
ny favorable features such as offloading operations which would usually be performed by a central server and reducing risks of serious privacy leakage. However, Byzantine clients that send incorrect or disruptive updates due to system failures or adversarial attacks may disturb the joint learning process, consequently degrading the performance of the resulting model. In this paper, we propose to mitigate these failures and attacks from a spatial-temporal perspective. Specifically, we use a clustering-based method to detect and exclude incorrect updates by leveraging their geometric properties in the parameter space. Moreover, to further handle malicious clients with time-varying behaviors, we propose to adaptively adjust the learning rate according to momentum-based update speculation. Extensive experiments on 4 public datasets demonstrate that our algorithm achieves enhanced robustness comparing to existing methods under both cross-silo and cross-device FL settings with faulty/malicious clients.
Federated learning is a novel framework that enables resource-constrained edge devices to jointly learn a model, which solves the problem of data protection and data islands. However, standard federated learning is vulnerable to Byzantine attacks, wh
ich will cause the global model to be manipulated by the attacker or fail to converge. On non-iid data, the current methods are not effective in defensing against Byzantine attacks. In this paper, we propose a Byzantine-robust framework for federated learning via credibility assessment on non-iid data (BRCA). Credibility assessment is designed to detect Byzantine attacks by combing adaptive anomaly detection model and data verification. Specially, an adaptive mechanism is incorporated into the anomaly detection model for the training and prediction of the model. Simultaneously, a unified update algorithm is given to guarantee that the global model has a consistent direction. On non-iid data, our experiments demonstrate that the BRCA is more robust to Byzantine attacks compared with conventional methods
Federated Learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning paradigm where data is distributed among clients who collaboratively train a model in a computation process coordinated by a central server. By assigning a weight to each client based on the p
roportion of data instances it possesses, the rate of convergence to an accurate joint model can be greatly accelerated. Some previous works studied FL in a Byzantine setting, in which a fraction of the clients may send arbitrary or even malicious information regarding their model. However, these works either ignore the issue of data unbalancedness altogether or assume that client weights are apriori known to the server, whereas, in practice, it is likely that weights will be reported to the server by the clients themselves and therefore cannot be relied upon. We address this issue for the first time by proposing a practical weight-truncation-based preprocessing method and demonstrating empirically that it is able to strike a good balance between model quality and Byzantine robustness. We also establish analytically that our method can be applied to a randomly selected sample of client weights.
We present a robust aggregation approach to make federated learning robust to settings when a fraction of the devices may be sending corrupted updates to the server. The proposed approach relies on a robust secure aggregation oracle based on the geom
etric median, which returns a robust aggregate using a constant number of calls to a regular non-robust secure average oracle. The robust aggregation oracle is privacy-preserving, similar to the secure average oracle it builds upon. We provide experimental results of the proposed approach with linear models and deep networks for two tasks in computer vision and natural language processing. The robust aggregation approach is agnostic to the level of corruption; it outperforms the classical aggregation approach in terms of robustness when the level of corruption is high, while being competitive in the regime of low corruption.
Gradient-based training in federated learning is known to be vulnerable to faulty/malicious worker nodes, which are often modeled as Byzantine clients. Previous work either makes use of auxiliary data at parameter server to verify the received gradie
nts or leverages statistic-based methods to identify and remove malicious gradients from Byzantine clients. In this paper, we acknowledge that auxiliary data may not always be available in practice and focus on the statistic-based approach. However, recent work on model poisoning attacks have shown that well-crafted attacks can circumvent most of existing median- and distance-based statistical defense methods, making malicious gradients indistinguishable from honest ones. To tackle this challenge, we show that the element-wise sign of gradient vector can provide valuable insight in detecting model poisoning attacks. Based on our theoretical analysis of state-of-the-art attack, we propose a novel approach, textit{SignGuard}, to enable Byzantine-robust federated learning through collaborative malicious gradient filtering. More precisely, the received gradients are first processed to generate relevant magnitude, sign, and similarity statistics, which are then collaboratively utilized by multiple, parallel filters to eliminate malicious gradients before final aggregation. We further provide theoretical analysis of SignGuard by quantifying its convergence with appropriate choice of learning rate and under non-IID training data. Finally, extensive experiments of image and text classification tasks - including MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR-10, and AG-News - are conducted together with recently proposed attacks and defense strategies. The numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our proposed approach.
