Label propagation has proven to be a fast method for detecting communities in complex networks. Recent work has also improved the accuracy and stability of the basic algorithm, however, a general approach is still an open issue. We propose…

Widespread usage of complex interconnected social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn in modern internet era has also unfortunately opened the door for privacy violation of users of such networks by malicious entities. In this…

Decentralized identity frameworks grant users full sovereignty over their digital assets in the Web3 ecosystem. However, allowing arbitrary creation of identifiers makes the system susceptible to Sybil attacks and puts assets at risk when…

Large language models (LLMs) have been widely integrated into critical automated workflows, including contract review and job application processes. However, LLMs are susceptible to manipulation by fraudulent information, which can lead to…

While most of humanity is suddenly on the net, the value of this singularity is hampered by the lack of credible digital identities: Social networking, person-to-person transactions, democratic conduct, cooperation and philanthropy are all…

Given the reach of web platforms, bad actors have considerable incentives to manipulate and defraud users at the expense of platform integrity. This has spurred research in numerous suspicious behavior detection tasks, including detection…

Wireless networks are vulnerable to Sybil attacks, in which a malicious node poses as many identities in order to gain disproportionate influence. Many defenses based on spatial variability of wireless channels exist, but depend either on…

It has been demonstrated that adversarial graphs, i.e., graphs with imperceptible perturbations added, can cause deep graph models to fail on node/graph classification tasks. In this paper, we extend adversarial graphs to the problem of…

Jailbreaking is an emerging adversarial attack that bypasses the safety alignment deployed in off-the-shelf large language models (LLMs) and has evolved into multiple categories: human-based, optimization-based, generation-based, and the…

Influence estimation aims to predict the total influence spread in social networks and has received surged attention in recent years. Most current studies focus on estimating the total number of influenced users in a social network, and…

In this paper, we address the challenge of discovering hidden nodes in unknown social networks, formulating three types of hidden-node discovery problems, namely, Sybil-node discovery, peripheral-node discovery, and influencer discovery. We…

The rapid proliferation of rumors on social networks poses a significant threat to information integrity. While rumor dissemination forms complex structural patterns, existing detection methods often fail to capture the intricate interplay…

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks are a cornerstone of modern computing, and their security is an active area of research. Many defenses with strong security guarantees have been proposed; however, the most-recent survey is over a decade old.…

Social media platforms enable instant and ubiquitous connectivity and are essential to social interaction and communication in our technological society. Apart from its advantages, these platforms have given rise to negative behaviors in…

The accelerated development of social media websites has posed intricate security issues in cyberspace, where these sites have increasingly become victims of criminal activities including attempts to intrude into them, abnormal traffic…

Deepfake or synthetic images produced using deep generative models pose serious risks to online platforms. This has triggered several research efforts to accurately detect deepfake images, achieving excellent performance on publicly…

Social networks play a significant role in today's world. The importance of social networks, for example Facebook or Twitter, are undeniable. However, they also have many issues. One of which is the need for a defense mechanism against fake…

Although Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown promising potential in fake news detection, they remain highly vulnerable to adversarial manipulations within social networks. Existing methods primarily establish connections between…

For studying intrusion detection data we consider data points referring to individual IP addresses and their connections: We build networks associated with those data points, such that vertices in a graph are associated via the respective…

With rise in security breaches over the past few years, there has been an increasing need to mine insights from social media platforms to raise alerts of possible attacks in an attempt to defend conflict during competition. In this study,…
