SEED: Semi-Supervised Continual MalwarE Detection for Tackling ConcEpt Drift on a BuDget

Machine learning based malware detectors become obsolete over time due to concept drift in benign and malware applications. Recent methods rely on fully labeled data and use hierarchical contrastive loss HCL with active learning to improve robustness against drift by exploiting semantic structure...

Enhanced Deep Learning DeepFake Detection Integrating Handcrafted Features

The rapid advancement of deepfake and face swap technologies has raised significant concerns in digital security, particularly in identity verification and onboarding processes. Conventional detection methods often struggle to generalize against sophisticated facial manipulations. This study...

Verifiably Forgotten? Gradient Differences Still Enable Data Reconstruction in Federated Unlearning

Federated Unlearning FU has emerged as a critical compliance mechanism for data privacy regulations, requiring unlearned clients to provide verifiable Proof of Federated Unlearning PoFU to auditors upon data removal requests. However, we uncover a significant privacy vulnerability: when gradient...
