Batch active learning (BAL) is a crucial technique for reducing labeling costs and improving data efficiency in training large-scale deep learning models. Traditional BAL methods often rely on metrics like Mahalanobis Distance to balance…

Knowledge of the input format of binary executables is important for finding bugs and vulnerabilities, such as generating data for fuzzing or manual reverse engineering. This paper presents an algorithm to recover the structure and semantic…

Cyber Essentials (CE) comprise a set of controls designed to protect organisations, irrespective of their size, against cyber attacks. The controls are firewalls, secure configuration, user access control, malware protection & security…

With the widespread popularity of RISC-V -- an open-source ISA -- custom hardware security solutions targeting specific defense needs are gaining popularity. These solutions often require specialized compilers that can insert metadata…

Cross-architecture binary similarity comparison is essential in many security applications. Recently, researchers have proposed learning-based approaches to improve comparison performance. They adopted a paradigm of instruction…

Dynamic Symbolic Execution (DSE) is an important method for the testing of programs. An important system on DSE is KLEE which inputs a C/C++ program annotated with symbolic variables, compiles it into LLVM, and then emulates the execution…

We study how to scale reasoning token budgets for competitive programming through two complementary approaches: training-time reinforcement learning (RL) and test-time parallel thinking. During RL training, we observe an approximately…

Classical linear ciphers, such as the Hill cipher, operate on fixed, finite-dimensional modules and are therefore vulnerable to straightforward known-plaintext attacks that recover the key as a fully determined linear operator. We propose a…

Ransomware core capability, unauthorized encryption, demands controls that identify and block malicious cryptographic activity without disrupting legitimate use. We present a probabilistic, risk-based access control architecture that…

We propose using reinforcement learning to address the challenges of discovering microarchitectural vulnerabilities, such as Spectre and Meltdown, which exploit subtle interactions in modern processors. Traditional methods like random…

Cybersecurity demands rigorous and scalable techniques to ensure system correctness, robustness, and resilience against evolving threats. Automated reasoning, encompassing formal logic, theorem proving, model checking, and symbolic…

Reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms have been successfully applied to control tasks associated with unmanned aerial vehicles and robotics. In recent years, safe RL has been proposed to allow the safe execution of RL algorithms in…

Malware analysis techniques are divided into static and dynamic analysis. Both techniques can be bypassed by circumvention techniques such as obfuscation. In a series of works, the authors have promoted the use of symbolic executions…

Post-training quantization makes large reasoning models practical under tight memory and latency budgets, but it can distort the online signals that drive adaptive test-time compute allocation. Under a fixed cap on the number of newly…

Fault injection attacks represent a type of active, physical attack against cryptographic circuits. Various countermeasures have been proposed to thwart such attacks, the design and implementation of which are, however, intricate,…

Neural networks are increasingly used in real-time systems, such as automated driving applications. This requires high-performance hardware with predictable timing behavior. State-of-the-art real-time hardware is limited in memory and…

As large language models (LLMs) increasingly integrate native code interpreters, they enable powerful real-time execution capabilities, substantially expanding their utility. However, such integrations introduce potential system-level…

While deep learning models often achieve high predictive accuracy, their predictions typically do not come with any provable guarantees on risk or reliability, which are critical for deployment in high-stakes applications. The framework of…

Malware and cheat developers use fileless execution techniques to evade traditional, signature-based security products. These methods include various types of manual mapping, module stomping, and threadless injection which work entirely…

Static and dynamic binary analysis techniques are actively used to reverse engineer software's behavior and to detect its vulnerabilities, even when only the binary code is available for analysis. To avoid analysis errors due to misreading…
