Capsule networks (CapsNets) are an emerging trend in image processing. In contrast to a convolutional neural network, CapsNets are not vulnerable to object deformation, as the relative spatial information of the objects is preserved across…

The biggest overhead for the instantiation of a virtual machine in a cloud infrastructure is the time spent in transferring the image of the virtual machine into the physical node that executes it. This overhead becomes larger for requests…

Image processing and machine learning applications benefit tremendously from hardware acceleration, but existing compilers target either FPGAs, which sacrifice power and performance for flexible hardware, or ASICs, which rapidly become…

This paper introduces the MIP Platform architecture model, a novel AI-based cognitive computing platform architecture. The goal of the proposed application of MIP is to reduce the implementation burden for the usage of AI algorithms applied…

Containerized microservices are widely adopted for latency-sensitive and compute-intensive applications, with Kubernetes (K8s) as the dominant orchestration platform. However, automating the deployment and management of multi-service…

Recent advancements in diffusion models have enabled high-fidelity and photorealistic image generation across diverse applications. However, these models also present security and privacy risks, including copyright violations, sensitive…

Immersive communications is a key use case for 6G where applications require reliable latency-bound media traffic at a certain data rate to deliver an acceptable User Experience (UX) or Quality-of-Experience (QoE). The Quality-of-Service…

System operators responsible for protecting software applications remain hesitant to implement cyber deception technology, including methods that place traps to catch attackers, despite its proven benefits. Overcoming their concerns removes…

While disk encryption is suitable for use in most situations where confidentiality of disks is required, stronger guarantees are required in situations where adversaries may employ coercive tactics to gain access to cryptographic keys.…

Real-world backdoor attacks often require poisoned datasets to be stored and transmitted before being used to compromise deep learning systems. However, in the era of big data, the inevitable use of lossy compression poses a fundamental…

Serverless computing has revolutionized cloud architectures by enabling developers to deploy event-driven applications via lightweight, self-contained virtualized containers. However, serverless frameworks face critical cold-start…

We consider adversarial examples for image classification in the black-box decision-based setting. Here, an attacker cannot access confidence scores, but only the final label. Most attacks for this scenario are either unreliable or…

The advent of multi-/many-core processors in clusters advocates hybrid parallel programming, which combines Message Passing Interface (MPI) for inter-node parallelism with a shared memory model for on-node parallelism. Compared to the…

Nowadays a wide range of applications is constrained by low-latency requirements that cloud infrastructures cannot meet. Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) has been proposed as the reference architecture for executing applications closer to…

While the CHERI instruction-set architecture extensions for capabilities enable strong spatial memory safety, CHERI lacks built-in temporal safety, particularly for heap allocations. Prior attempts to augment CHERI with temporal safety fall…

The rapid adoption of mobile graphical user interface (GUI) agents, which autonomously control applications and operating systems (OS), exposes new system-level attack surfaces. Existing backdoors against web GUI agents and general GenAI…

A growing body of work has shown that deep neural networks are susceptible to adversarial examples. These take the form of small perturbations applied to the model's input which lead to incorrect predictions. Unfortunately, most literature…

We study black-box adversarial attacks for image classifiers in a constrained threat model, where adversaries can only modify a small fraction of pixels in the form of scratches on an image. We show that it is possible for adversaries to…

The widespread adoption of deep learning across various industries has introduced substantial challenges, particularly in terms of model explainability and security. The inherent complexity of deep learning models, while contributing to…

Modern processors include high-performance cryptographic functionalities such as Intel's AES-NI and ARM's Pointer Authentication that allow programs to efficiently authenticate data held by the program. Pointer Authentication is already…
