Remote direct memory access (RDMA) networks are being rapidly adopted into industry for their high speed, low latency, and reduced CPU overheads compared to traditional kernel-based TCP/IP networks. RDMA enables threads to access remote…

Tor, one of the most popular censorship circumvention systems, faces regular blocking attempts by censors. Thus, to facilitate access, it relies on "pluggable transports" (PTs) that disguise Tor's traffic and make it hard for the adversary…

Firewalls use a rule database to decide which packets will be allowed from one network onto another thereby implementing a security policy. In high-speed networks as the inter-arrival rate of packets decreases, the latency incurred by a…

As an emerging and vital topic for studying deep neural networks' vulnerability (DNNs), backdoor learning has attracted increasing interest in recent years, and many seminal backdoor attack and defense algorithms are being developed…

Linux Seccomp is widely used by the program developers and the system maintainers to secure the operating systems, which can block unused syscalls for different applications and containers to shrink the attack surface of the operating…

Although machine learning based algorithms have been extensively used for detecting phishing websites, there has been relatively little work on how adversaries may attack such "phishing detectors" (PDs for short). In this paper, we propose…

Based on the analysis of $6$-digit one-time passwords(OTP) generated by DIGIPASS GO3 we were able to reconstruct the synchronisation system of the token, the OTP generating algorithm and the verification protocol in details essential for an…

Neural Networks (NN) have recently emerged as backbone of several sensitive applications like automobile, medical image, security, etc. NNs inherently offer Partial Fault Tolerance (PFT) in their architecture; however, the biased PFT of NNs…

A key distinguishing feature of single flux quantum (SFQ) circuits is that each logic gate is clocked. This feature forces the introduction of path-balancing flip-flops to ensure proper synchronization of inputs at each gate. This paper…

The growing size of modern datasets necessitates splitting a large scale computation into smaller computations and operate in a distributed manner. Adversaries in a distributed system deliberately send erroneous data in order to affect the…

A general open problem in networking is: what are the fundamental limits to the performance that is achievable with some given amount of resources? More specifically, if each node in the network has information about only its $1$-hop…
