A Survey on Secure Machine Learning

In this survey, we will explore the interaction between secure multiparty computation and the area of machine learning. Recent advances in secure multiparty computation MPC have significantly improved its applicability in the realm of machine learning ML, offering robust solutions for...

Covert Attacks on Machine Learning Training in Passively Secure MPC

Secure multiparty computation MPC allows data owners to train machine learning models on combined data while keeping the underlying training data private. The MPC threat model either considers an adversary who passively corrupts some parties without affecting their overall behavior, or an adversa...

Privacy-Preserving Analytics for Smart Meter (AMI) Data: a Hybrid Approach to Comply with CPUC Privacy Regulations

Advanced Metering Infrastructure AMI data from smart electric and gas meters enables valuable insights for utilities and consumers, but also raises significant privacy concerns. In California, regulatory decisions CPUC D.11-07-056 and D.11-08-045 mandate strict privacy protections for customer...
