Anonymizing text that contains sensitive information is crucial for a wide range of applications. Existing techniques face the emerging challenges of the re-identification ability of large language models (LLMs), which have shown advanced…
A behavioral authentication (BA) system uses the behavioral characteristics of users to verify their identity claims. A BA verification algorithm can be constructed by training a neural network (NN) classifier on users' profiles. The…
Publishing person-specific transactions in an anonymous form is increasingly required by organizations. Recent approaches ensure that potentially identifying information (e.g., a set of diagnosis codes) cannot be used to link published…
Over the past few years, providers such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon have started to provide customers with access to software interfaces allowing them to easily embed machine learning tasks into their applications. Overall,…
A very useful technique a network administrator can use to identify problematic network behavior is careful analysis of logs of incoming and outgoing network flows. The challenge one faces when attempting to undertake this course of action,…
The daily activities performed by a disabled or elderly person can be monitored by a smart environment, and the acquired data can be used to learn a predictive model of user behavior. To speed up the learning, several researchers designed…
Insider threat is one of the most pernicious threat vectors to information and communication technologies (ICT)across the world due to the elevated level of trust and access that an insider is afforded. This type of threat can stem from…
Process mining enables organizations to discover and analyze their actual processes using event data. Event data can be extracted from any information system supporting operational processes, e.g., SAP. Whereas the data inside such systems…
