It has been empirically observed that defense mechanisms designed to protect neural networks against $\ell_\infty$ adversarial examples offer poor performance against $\ell_2$ adversarial examples and vice versa. In this paper we conduct a…
In this work, we study interception attacks against a secret sharing protocol based on Grovers search algorithm. Unlike previous works that only give the algorithm for two and three participants, we have generalized the algorithm for any…
In the inference attacks studied in Quantitative Information Flow (QIF), the attacker typically tries to interfere with the system in the attempt to increase its leakage of secret information. The defender, on the other hand, typically…
We reconsider the concept of multi-prover commitments, as introduced in the late eighties in the seminal work by Ben-Or et al. As was recently shown by Cr\'{e}peau et al., the security of known two-prover commitment schemes not only relies…
