Data poisoning attacks -- where an adversary can modify a small fraction of training data, with the goal of forcing the trained classifier to high loss -- are an important threat for machine learning in many applications. While a body of…

With the rapid development of online technologies and the widespread usage of mobile phones among children, it is crucial to protect their online safety. Some studies reported that online abuse and incidents negatively affect children's…

Online texts with toxic content are a clear threat to the users on social media in particular and society in general. Although many platforms have adopted various measures (e.g., machine learning-based hate-speech detection systems) to…

This paper describes three principal challenges in smishing mitigation - limitations of device affordances, complexity of infrastructure, and cognitive and contextual factors of mobile device use. We give a high-level overview of ideas that…

Growing evidence shows that proactive content moderation supported by AI can help improve online discourse. However, we know little about designing these systems, how design impacts efficacy and user experience, and how people perceive…

In the area of information technology, cybersecurity is critical. Information security is one of todays highest priorities. Cyber attacks, which are on the rise and include Ransomware, are the first thing that springs to mind when we think…
