Today, two-factor authentication (2FA) is a widely implemented mechanism to counter phishing attacks. Although much effort has been investigated in 2FA, most 2FA systems are still vulnerable to carefully designed phishing attacks, and some even request special hardware, which limits their wide deployment. Recently, real-time phishing (RTP) has made the situation even worse because an adversary can effortlessly establish a phishing website replicating a target website without any background of the web page design technique. Traditional 2FA can be easily bypassed by such RTP attacks. In this work, we propose a novel 2FA system to counter RTP attacks. The main idea is to request a user to take a photo of the web browser with the domain name in the address bar as the 2nd authentication factor. The web server side extracts the domain name information based on Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and then determines if the user is visiting this website or a fake one, thus defeating the RTP attacks where an adversary must set up a fake website with a different domain. We prototyped our system and evaluated its performance in various environments. The results showed that PhotoAuth is an effective technique with good scalability. We also showed that compared to other 2FA systems, PhotoAuth has several advantages, especially no special hardware or software support is needed on the client side except a phone, making it readily deployable.

The majority of systems rely on user authentication on passwords, but passwords have so many weaknesses and widespread use that easily raise significant security concerns, regardless of their encrypted form. Users hold the same password for different
accounts, administrators never check password files for flaws that might lead to a successful cracking, and the lack of a tight security policy regarding regular password replacement are a few problems that need to be addressed. The proposed research work aims at enhancing this security mechanism, prevent penetrations, password theft, and attempted break-ins towards securing computing systems. The selected solution approach is two-folded; it implements a two-factor authentication scheme to prevent unauthorized access, accompanied by Honeyword principles to detect corrupted or stolen tokens. Both can be integrated into any platform or web application with the use of QR codes and a mobile phone.
Phishing is a major problem on the Web. Despite the significant attention it has received over the years, there has been no definitive solution. While the state-of-the-art solutions have reasonably good performance, they require a large amount of tra
ining data and are not adept at detecting phishing attacks against new targets. In this paper, we begin with two core observations: (a) although phishers try to make a phishing webpage look similar to its target, they do not have unlimited freedom in structuring the phishing webpage; and (b) a webpage can be characterized by a small set of key terms; how these key terms are used in different parts of a webpage is different in the case of legitimate and phishing webpages. Based on these observations, we develop a phishing detection system with several notable properties: it is language-independent, can be implemented entirely on client-side, has excellent classification performance and is fast. In addition, we developed a target identification component that can identify the target website that a phishing webpage is attempting to mimic. The target detection component is faster than previously reported systems and can help minimize false positives in our phishing detection system.
Due to the advances of sensing and storage technologies, a tremendous amount of data becomes available and, it supports the phenomenal growth of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques especially, deep learning (DL), in various application domains. W
hile the data sources become valuable assets for enabling the success of autonomous decision-making, they also lead to critical vulnerabilities in privacy and security. For example, data leakage can be exploited via querying and eavesdropping in the exploratory phase for black-box attacks against DL-based autonomous decision-making systems. To address this issue, in this work, we propose a novel data encryption method, called AdvEncryption, by exploiting the principle of adversarial attacks. Different from existing encryption technologies, the AdvEncryption method is not developed to prevent attackers from exploiting the dataset. Instead, our proposed method aims to trap the attackers in a misleading feature distillation of the data. To achieve this goal, our AdvEncryption method consists of two essential components: 1) an adversarial attack-inspired encryption mechanism to encrypt the data with stealthy adversarial perturbation, and 2) a decryption mechanism that minimizes the impact of the perturbations on the effectiveness of autonomous decision making. In the performance evaluation section, we evaluate the performance of our proposed AdvEncryption method through case studies considering different scenarios.
Adversarial patch attack against image classification deep neural networks (DNNs), in which the attacker can inject arbitrary distortions within a bounded region of an image, is able to generate adversarial perturbations that are robust (i.e., remain
adversarial in physical world) and universal (i.e., remain adversarial on any input). It is thus important to detect and mitigate such attack to ensure the security of DNNs. This work proposes Jujutsu, a technique to detect and mitigate robust and universal adversarial patch attack. Jujutsu leverages the universal property of the patch attack for detection. It uses explainable AI technique to identify suspicious features that are potentially malicious, and verify their maliciousness by transplanting the suspicious features to new images. An adversarial patch continues to exhibit the malicious behavior on the new images and thus can be detected based on prediction consistency. Jujutsu leverages the localized nature of the patch attack for mitigation, by randomly masking the suspicious features to remove adversarial perturbations. However, the network might fail to classify the images as some of the contents are removed (masked). Therefore, Jujutsu uses image inpainting for synthesizing alternative contents from the pixels that are masked, which can reconstruct the clean image for correct prediction. We evaluate Jujutsu on five DNNs on two datasets, and show that Jujutsu achieves superior performance and significantly outperforms existing techniques. Jujutsu can further defend against various variants of the basic attack, including 1) physical-world attack; 2) attacks that target diverse classes; 3) attacks that use patches in different shapes and 4) adaptive attacks.
Recent work has discovered that deep reinforcement learning (DRL) policies are vulnerable to adversarial examples. These attacks mislead the policy of DRL agents by perturbing the state of the environment observed by agents. They are feasible in prin
ciple but too slow to fool DRL policies in real time. We propose a new attack to fool DRL policies that is both effective and efficient enough to be mounted in real time. We utilize the Universal Adversarial Perturbation (UAP) method to compute effective perturbations independent of the individual inputs to which they are applied. Via an extensive evaluation using Atari 2600 games, we show that our technique is effective, as it fully degrades the performance of both deterministic and stochastic policies (up to 100%, even when the $l_infty$ bound on the perturbation is as small as 0.005). We also show that our attack is efficient, incurring an online computational cost of 0.027ms on average. It is faster compared to the response time (0.6ms on average) of agents with different DRL policies, and considerably faster than prior attacks (2.7ms on average). Furthermore, we demonstrate that known defenses are ineffective against universal perturbations. We propose an effective detection technique which can form the basis for robust defenses against attacks based on universal perturbations.
