Cyber attacks pose crucial threats to computer system security, and put digital treasuries at excessive risks. This leads to an urgent call for an effective intrusion detection system that can identify the intrusion attacks with high accuracy. It is challenging to classify the intrusion events due to the wide variety of attacks. Furthermore, in a normal network environment, a majority of the connections are initiated by benign behaviors. The class imbalance issue in intrusion detection forces the classifier to be biased toward the majority/benign class, thus leave many attack incidents undetected. Spurred by the success of deep neural networks in computer vision and natural language processing, in this paper, we design a new system named DeepIDEA that takes full advantage of deep learning to enable intrusion detection and classification. To achieve high detection accuracy on imbalanced data, we design a novel attack-sharing loss function that can effectively move the decision boundary towards the attack classes and eliminates the bias towards the majority/benign class. By using this loss function, DeepIDEA respects the fact that the intrusion mis-classification should receive higher penalty than the attack mis-classification. Extensive experimental results on three benchmark datasets demonstrate the high detection accuracy of DeepIDEA. In particular, compared with eight state-of-the-art approaches, DeepIDEA always provides the best class-balanced accuracy.

The last few years have seen an increasing wave of attacks with serious economic and privacy damages, which evinces the need for accurate Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS). Recent works propose the use of Machine Learning (ML) techniques for building such systems (e.g., decision trees, neural networks). However, existing ML-based NIDS are barely robust to common adversarial attacks, which limits their applicability to real networks. A fundamental problem of these solutions is that they treat and classify flows independently. In contrast, in this paper we argue the importance of focusing on the structural patterns of attacks, by capturing not only the individual flow features, but also the relations between different flows (e.g., the source/destination hosts they share). To this end, we use a graph representation that keeps flow records and their relationships, and propose a novel Graph Neural Network (GNN) model tailored to process and learn from such graph-structured information. In our evaluation, we first show that the proposed GNN model achieves state-of-the-art results in the well-known CIC-IDS2017 dataset. Moreover, we assess the robustness of our solution under two common adversarial attacks, that intentionally modify the packet size and inter-arrival times to avoid detection. The results show that our model is able to maintain the same level of accuracy as in previous experiments, while state-of-the-art ML techniques degrade up to 50% their accuracy (F1-score) under these attacks. This unprecedented level of robustness is mainly induced by the capability of our GNN model to learn flow patterns of attacks structured as graphs.
The Controller Area Network (CAN) bus works as an important protocol in the real-time In-Vehicle Network (IVN) systems for its simple, suitable, and robust architecture. The risk of IVN devices has still been insecure and vulnerable due to the comple x data-intensive architectures which greatly increase the accessibility to unauthorized networks and the possibility of various types of cyberattacks. Therefore, the detection of cyberattacks in IVN devices has become a growing interest. With the rapid development of IVNs and evolving threat types, the traditional machine learning-based IDS has to update to cope with the security requirements of the current environment. Nowadays, the progression of deep learning, deep transfer learning, and its impactful outcome in several areas has guided as an effective solution for network intrusion detection. This manuscript proposes a deep transfer learning-based IDS model for IVN along with improved performance in comparison to several other existing models. The unique contributions include effective attribute selection which is best suited to identify malicious CAN messages and accurately detect the normal and abnormal activities, designing a deep transfer learning-based LeNet model, and evaluating considering real-world data. To this end, an extensive experimental performance evaluation has been conducted. The architecture along with empirical analyses shows that the proposed IDS greatly improves the detection accuracy over the mainstream machine learning, deep learning, and benchmark deep transfer learning models and has demonstrated better performance for real-time IVN security.
While Water Treatment Networks (WTNs) are critical infrastructures for local communities and public health, WTNs are vulnerable to cyber attacks. Effective detection of attacks can defend WTNs against discharging contaminated water, denying access, d estroying equipment, and causing public fear. While there are extensive studies in WTNs attack detection, they only exploit the data characteristics partially to detect cyber attacks. After preliminary exploring the sensing data of WTNs, we find that integrating spatio-temporal knowledge, representation learning, and detection algorithms can improve attack detection accuracy. To this end, we propose a structured anomaly detection framework to defend WTNs by modeling the spatio-temporal characteristics of cyber attacks in WTNs. In particular, we propose a spatio-temporal representation framework specially tailored to cyber attacks after separating the sensing data of WTNs into a sequence of time segments. This framework has two key components. The first component is a temporal embedding module to preserve temporal patterns within a time segment by projecting the time segment of a sensor into a temporal embedding vector. We then construct Spatio-Temporal Graphs (STGs), where a node is a sensor and an attribute is the temporal embedding vector of the sensor, to describe the state of the WTNs. The second component is a spatial embedding module, which learns the final fused embedding of the WTNs from STGs. In addition, we devise an improved one class-SVM model that utilizes a new designed pairwise kernel to detect cyber attacks. The devised pairwise kernel augments the distance between normal and attack patterns in the fused embedding space. Finally, we conducted extensive experimental evaluations with real-world data to demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework.

Although deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved a great success in various computer vision tasks, it is recently found that they are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. In this paper, we focus on the so-called textit{backdoor attack}, which injects a backdoor trigger to a small portion of training data (also known as data poisoning) such that the trained DNN induces misclassification while facing examples with this trigger. To be specific, we carefully study the effect of both real and synthetic backdoor attacks on the internal response of vanilla and backdoored DNNs through the lens of Gard-CAM. Moreover, we show that the backdoor attack induces a significant bias in neuron activation in terms of the $ell_infty$ norm of an activation map compared to its $ell_1$ and $ell_2$ norm. Spurred by our results, we propose the textit{$ell_infty$-based neuron pruning} to remove the backdoor from the backdoored DNN. Experiments show that our method could effectively decrease the attack success rate, and also hold a high classification accuracy for clean images.
As deep learning systems are widely adopted in safety- and security-critical applications, such as autonomous vehicles, banking systems, etc., malicious faults and attacks become a tremendous concern, which potentially could lead to catastrophic cons equences. In this paper, we initiate the first study of leveraging physical fault injection attacks on Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), by using laser injection technique on embedded systems. In particular, our exploratory study targets four widely used activation functions in DNNs development, that are the general main building block of DNNs that creates non-linear behaviors -- ReLu, softmax, sigmoid, and tanh. Our results show that by targeting these functions, it is possible to achieve a misclassification by injecting faults into the hidden layer of the network. Such result can have practical implications for real-world applications, where faults can be introduced by simpler means (such as altering the supply voltage).
