Practical Countermeasure against Attacks Exploiting Detection Efficiency Mismatch in Quantum Key Distribution

We demonstrate a practical countermeasure against a well-known class of attacks on quantum key distribution QKD systems that exploit detection efficiency mismatch, where the receiver's detectors do not exhibit identical responses to incoming photons across all degrees of freedom. This class of...

Finding Memory Leaks in C/C++ Programs Via Neuro-Symbolic Augmented Static Analysis

Memory leaks remain prevalent in real-world C/C++ software. Static analyzers such as CodeQL provide scalable program analysis but frequently miss such bugs because they cannot recognize project-specific custom memory-management functions and lack path-sensitive control-flow modeling. We present...

Hierarchical Graph Neural Network for Compressed Speech Steganalysis

Steganalysis methods based on deep learning DL often struggle with computational complexity and challenges in generalizing across different datasets. Incorporating a graph neural network GNN into steganalysis schemes enables the leveraging of relational data for improved detection accuracy and...

CLIProv: a Contrastive Log-To-Intelligence Multimodal Approach for Threat Detection and Provenance Analysis

With the increasing complexity of cyberattacks, the proactive and forward-looking nature of threat intelligence has become more crucial for threat detection and provenance analysis. However, translating high-level attack patterns described in Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures TTP intelligence...
