For model privacy, local model parameters in federated learning shall be obfuscated before sent to the remote aggregator. This technique is referred to as emph{secure aggregation}. However, secure aggregation makes model poisoning attacks such backdooring more convenient considering that existing anomaly detection methods mostly require access to plaintext local models. This paper proposes SAFELearning which supports backdoor detection for secure aggregation. We achieve this through two new primitives - emph{oblivious random grouping (ORG)} and emph{partial parameter disclosure (PPD)}. ORG partitions participants into one-time random subgroups with group configurations oblivious to participants; PPD allows secure partial disclosure of aggregated subgroup models for anomaly detection without leaking individual model privacy. SAFELearning can significantly reduce backdoor model accuracy without jeopardizing the main task accuracy under common backdoor strategies. Extensive experiments show SAFELearning is robust against malicious and faulty participants, whilst being more efficient than the state-of-art secure aggregation protocol in terms of both communication and computation costs.

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 pro tocol 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 learning is a distributed framework for training machine learning models over the data residing at mobile devices, while protecting the privacy of individual users. A major bottleneck in scaling federated learning to a large number of users is the overhead of secure model aggregation across many users. In particular, the overhead of the state-of-the-art protocols for secure model aggregation grows quadratically with the number of users. In this paper, we propose the first secure aggregation framework, named Turbo-Aggregate, that in a network with $N$ users achieves a secure aggregation overhead of $O(Nlog{N})$, as opposed to $O(N^2)$, while tolerating up to a user dropout rate of $50%$. Turbo-Aggregate employs a multi-group circular strategy for efficient model aggregation, and leverages additive secret sharing and novel coding techniques for injecting aggregation redundancy in order to handle user dropouts while guaranteeing user privacy. We experimentally demonstrate that Turbo-Aggregate achieves a total running time that grows almost linear in the number of users, and provides up to $40times$ speedup over the state-of-the-art protocols with up to $N=200$ users. Our experiments also demonstrate the impact of model size and bandwidth on the performance of Turbo-Aggregate.
Secure aggregation is a critical component in federated learning, which enables the server to learn the aggregate model of the users without observing their local models. Conventionally, secure aggregation algorithms focus only on ensuring the privac y of individual users in a single training round. We contend that such designs can lead to significant privacy leakages over multiple training rounds, due to partial user selection/participation at each round of federated learning. In fact, we empirically show that the conventional random user selection strategies for federated learning lead to leaking users individual models within number of rounds linear in the number of users. To address this challenge, we introduce a secure aggregation framework with multi-round privacy guarantees. In particular, we introduce a new metric to quantify the privacy guarantees of federated learning over multiple training rounds, and develop a structured user selection strategy that guarantees the long-term privacy of each user (over any number of training rounds). Our framework also carefully accounts for the fairness and the average number of participating users at each round. We perform several experiments on MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets in the IID and the non-IID settings to demonstrate the performance improvement over the baseline algorithms, both in terms of privacy protection and test accuracy.
Secure model aggregation across many users is a key component of federated learning systems. The state-of-the-art protocols for secure model aggregation, which are based on additive masking, require all users to quantize their model updates to the sa me level of quantization. This severely degrades their performance due to lack of adaptation to available bandwidth at different users. We propose three schemes that allow secure model aggregation while using heterogeneous quantization. This enables the users to adjust their quantization proportional to their available bandwidth, which can provide a substantially better trade-off between the accuracy of training and the communication time. The proposed schemes are based on a grouping strategy by partitioning the network into groups, and partitioning the local model updates of users into segments. Instead of applying aggregation protocol to the entire local model update vector, it is applied on segments with specific coordination between users. We theoretically evaluate the quantization error for our schemes, and also demonstrate how our schemes can be utilized to overcome Byzantine users.
Federated learning enables thousands of participants to construct a deep learning model without sharing their private training data with each other. For example, multiple smartphones can jointly train a next-word predictor for keyboards without revea ling what individual users type. We demonstrate that any participant in federated learning can introduce hidden backdoor functionality into the joint global model, e.g., to ensure that an image classifier assigns an attacker-chosen label to images with certain features, or that a word predictor completes certain sentences with an attacker-chosen word. We design and evaluate a new model-poisoning methodology based on model replacement. An attacker selected in a single round of federated learning can cause the global model to immediately reach 100% accuracy on the backdoor task. We evaluate the attack under different assumptions for the standard federated-learning tasks and show that it greatly outperforms data poisoning. Our generic constrain-and-scale technique also evades anomaly detection-based defenses by incorporating the evasion into the attackers loss function during training.
