An anomaly detection approach for backdoored neural networks: face recognition as a case study

Sébastien Marcel, Alexander Carl Unnervik

Backdoor attacks allow an attacker to embed functionality jeopardizing proper behavior of any algorithm, machine learning or not. This hidden functionality can remain inactive for normal use of the algorithm until activated by the attacker. Given how steal ...

BioID: a Privacy-Friendly Identity Document

Serge Vaudenay, Muhammed Fatih Balli, Fatma Betül Durak

We design a suite of protocols so that a small tamper-resistant device can be used as a biometric identity document which can be scanned by authorized terminals. We target both strongly secure identification and strong privacy. Unlike biometric passports, ...
