Collaborative Intrusion Detection Systems (CIDS) are increasingly adopted to counter cyberattacks, as their collaborative nature enables them to adapt to diverse scenarios across heterogeneous environments. As distributed critical…

We consider the coded caching system where each user, equipped with a private cache, accesses a distinct r-subset of access caches. A central server housing a library of files populates both private and access caches using uncoded…

To enhance the quality and speed of data processing and protect the privacy and security of the data, edge computing has been extensively applied to support data-intensive intelligent processing services at edge. Among these data-intensive…

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) significantly mitigates the hallucinations and domain knowledge deficiency in large language models by incorporating external knowledge bases. However, the multi-module architecture of RAG introduces…

Diffusion models have emerged as a promising approach for generating high-quality, high-dimensional images. Nevertheless, these models are hindered by their high computational cost and slow inference, partly due to the quadratic…

The future power grid will be characterized by the pervasive use of heterogeneous and non-proprietary information and communication technology, which exposes the power grid to a broad scope of cyber-attacks. In particular,…

Modern x86 processors have many prefetch instructions that can be used by programmers to boost performance. However, these instructions may also cause security problems. In particular, we found that on Intel processors, there are two…

Existing retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems are primarily designed under the assumption that each query has a single correct answer. This overlooks common information-seeking scenarios with multiple plausible answers, where…

Intel SGX is known to be vulnerable to a class of practical attacks exploiting memory access pattern side-channels, notably page-fault attacks and cache timing attacks. A promising hardening scheme is to wrap applications in hardware…

This paper considers the design of tunable decision schemes capable of rejecting with high probability mismatched signals embedded in Gaussian interference with unknown covariance matrix. To this end, a sparse recovery technique is…

The rapid proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to expose critical security vulnerabilities, necessitating the development of efficient and robust intrusion detection systems (IDS). Machine learning-based intrusion…

While separate chaining is a common strategy for resolving collisions in a hash table taught in most textbooks, compact hashing is a less common technique for saving space when hashing integers whose domain is relatively small with respect…

Cautious predictions -- where a machine learning model abstains when uncertain -- are crucial for limiting harmful errors in safety-critical applications. In this work, we identify a novel threat: a dishonest institution can exploit these…

This paper studies the fundamental limits of the shared-link coded caching problem with correlated files, where a server with a library of $N$ files communicates with $K$ users who can locally cache $M$ files. Given an integer $r \in [N]$,…

In cache-based side channel attacks, an attacker infers information about the victim based on the presence, or lack thereof, of one or more cachelines. Determining a cacheline's presence, which we refer to as "reading the signal", typically…

Recently, many profiling side-channel attacks based on Machine Learning and Deep Learning have been proposed. Most of them focus on reducing the number of traces required for successful attacks by optimizing the modeling algorithms. In…

While Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting has become a standard paradigm for eliciting complex reasoning capabilities in Large Language Models, it inadvertently exposes a new attack surface for backdoor attacks. Existing CoT backdoor attacks…

Database fingerprinting have been widely adopted to prevent unauthorized sharing of data and identify the source of data leakages. Although existing schemes are robust against common attacks, like random bit flipping and subset attack,…

Constant-time code has become the de-facto standard for secure cryptographic implementations. However, some memory-based leakage classes such as ciphertext side-channels and silent stores remain unaddressed. Prior work proposed three…

Die-stacked DRAM caches are increasingly advocated to bridge the performance gap between on-chip Cache and main memory. It is essential to improve DRAM cache hit rate and lower cache hit latency simultaneously. Prior DRAM cache designs fall…
