Network security applications, including intrusion detection systems of deep neural networks, are increasing rapidly to make detection task of anomaly activities more accurate and robust. With the rapid increase of using DNN and the volume of data traveling through systems, different growing types of adversarial attacks to defeat them create a severe challenge. In this paper, we focus on investigating the effectiveness of different evasion attacks and how to train a resilience deep learning-based IDS using different Neural networks, e.g., convolutional neural networks (CNN) and recurrent neural networks (RNN). We use the min-max approach to formulate the problem of training robust IDS against adversarial examples using two benchmark datasets. Our experiments on different deep learning algorithms and different benchmark datasets demonstrate that defense using an adversarial training-based min-max approach improves the robustness against the five well-known adversarial attack methods.
Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) yield attractive properties for constructing Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) for network data. With the rise of ubiquitous Machine Learning (ML) systems, malicious actors have been catching up quickly to find new ways to exploit ML vulnerabilities for profit. Recently developed adversarial ML techniques focus on computer vision and their applicability to network traffic is not straightforward: Network packets expose fewer features than an image, are sequential and impose several constraints on their features. We show that despite these completely different c…

In big data era, machine learning is one of fundamental techniques in intrusion detection systems (IDSs). However, practical IDSs generally update their decision module by feeding new data then retraining learning models in a periodical way. Hence, some attacks that comprise the data for training or testing classifiers significantly challenge the detecting capability of machine learning-based IDSs. Poisoning attack, which is one of the most recognized security threats towards machine learning-based IDSs, injects some adversarial samples into the training phase, inducing data drifting of traini…
The proliferation and application of machine learning based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have allowed for more flexibility and efficiency in the automated detection of cyber attacks in Industrial Control Systems (ICS). However, the introduction of such IDSs has also created an additional attack vector; the learning models may also be subject to cyber attacks, otherwise referred to as Adversarial Machine Learning (AML). Such attacks may have severe consequences in ICS systems, as adversaries could potentially bypass the IDS. This could lead to delayed attack detection which may result in i…

Adversarial examples have been shown to exist for a variety of deep learning architectures. Deep reinforcement learning has shown promising results on training agent policies directly on raw inputs such as image pixels. In this paper we present a novel study into adversarial attacks on deep reinforcement learning polices. We compare the effectiveness of the attacks using adversarial examples vs. random noise. We present a novel method for reducing the number of times adversarial examples need to be injected for a successful attack, based on the value function. We further explore how re-trainin…
Deep learning has become the state of the art approach in many machine learning problems such as classification. It has recently been shown that deep learning is highly vulnerable to adversarial perturbations. Taking the camera systems of self-driving cars as an example, small adversarial perturbations can cause the system to make errors in important tasks, such as classifying traffic signs or detecting pedestrians. Hence, in order to use deep learning without safety concerns a proper defense strategy is required. We propose to use ensemble methods as a defense strategy against adversarial per…

This work attempts to address adversarial robustness of deep networks by means of novel learning arguments. Specifically, inspired from results in neuroscience, we propose a local competition principle as a means of adversarially-robust deep learning. We argue that novel local winner-takes-all (LWTA) nonlinearities, combined with posterior sampling schemes, can greatly improve the adversarial robustness of traditional deep networks against difficult adversarial attack schemes. We combine these LWTA arguments with tools from the field of Bayesian non-parametrics, specifically the stick-breaking…
We present a principled approach for detecting out-of-distribution (OOD) and adversarial samples in deep neural networks. Our approach consists in modeling the outputs of the various layers (deep features) with parametric probability distributions once training is completed. At inference, the likelihoods of the deep features w.r.t the previously learnt distributions are calculated and used to derive uncertainty estimates that can discriminate in-distribution samples from OOD samples. We explore the use of two classes of multivariate distributions for modeling the deep features - Gaussian and G…
In recent years, deep neural networks have demonstrated outstanding performance in many machine learning tasks. However, researchers have discovered that these state-of-the-art models are vulnerable to adversarial examples: legitimate examples added by small perturbations which are unnoticeable to human eyes. Adversarial training, which augments the training data with adversarial examples during the training process, is a well known defense to improve the robustness of the model against adversarial attacks. However, this robustness is only effective to the same attack method used for adversari…

Recent research showed that deep neural networks are highly sensitive to so-called adversarial perturbations, which are tiny perturbations of the input data purposely designed to fool a machine learning classifier. Most classification models, including deep learning models, are highly vulnerable to adversarial attacks. In this work, we investigate a procedure to improve adversarial robustness of deep neural networks through enforcing representation invariance. The idea is to train the classifier jointly with a discriminator attached to one of its hidden layer and trained to filter the adversar…
Deep neural networks are capable of training fast and generalizing well within many domains. Despite their promising performance, deep networks have shown sensitivities to perturbations of their inputs (e.g., adversarial examples) and their learned feature representations are often difficult to interpret, raising concerns about their true capability and trustworthiness. Recent work in adversarial training, a form of robust optimization in which the model is optimized against adversarial examples, demonstrates the ability to improve performance sensitivities to perturbations and yield feature r…

In this paper, we consider the problem of assessing the adversarial robustness of deep neural network models under both Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and Bayesian Dark Knowledge (BDK) inference approximations. We characterize the robustness of each method to two types of adversarial attacks: the fast gradient sign method (FGSM) and projected gradient descent (PGD). We show that full MCMC-based inference has excellent robustness, significantly outperforming standard point estimation-based learning. On the other hand, BDK provides marginal improvements. As an additional contribution, we presen…
Deep convolutional neural networks can be highly vulnerable to small perturbations of their inputs, potentially a major issue or limitation on system robustness when using deep networks as classifiers. In this paper we propose a low-cost method to explore marginal sample data near trained classifier decision boundaries, thus identifying potential adversarial samples. By finding such adversarial samples it is possible to reduce the search space of adversarial attack algorithms while keeping a reasonable successful perturbation rate. In our developed strategy, the potential adversarial samples r…

Recent studies have highlighted that deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to adversarial examples. In this paper, we improve the robustness of DNNs by utilizing techniques of Distance Metric Learning. Specifically, we incorporate Triplet Loss, one of the most popular Distance Metric Learning methods, into the framework of adversarial training. Our proposed algorithm, Adversarial Training with Triplet Loss (AT$^2$L), substitutes the adversarial example against the current model for the anchor of triplet loss to effectively smooth the classification boundary. Furthermore, we propose an ens…

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved great success in image classification, but can be very vulnerable to adversarial attacks with small perturbations to images. To improve adversarial image generation for DNNs, we develop a novel method, called mFI-PSO, which utilizes a Manifold-based First-order Influence measure for vulnerable image and pixel selection and the Particle Swarm Optimization for various objective functions. Our mFI-PSO can thus effectively design adversarial images with flexible, customized options on the number of perturbed pixels, the misclassification probability, and t…

Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) play an important role in identifying malicious attacks and threats in networking systems. As fundamental tools of IDSs, learning based classification methods have been widely employed. When it comes to detecting network intrusions in small sample sizes (e.g., emerging intrusions), the limited number and imbalanced proportion of training samples usually cause significant challenges in training supervised and semi-supervised classifiers. In this paper, we propose a general network intrusion detection framework to address the challenges of both \emph{data scarc…
It has been shown that deep neural networks (DNNs) may be vulnerable to adversarial attacks, raising the concern on their robustness particularly for safety-critical applications. Recognizing the local nature and limitations of existing adversarial attacks, we present a new type of global adversarial attacks for assessing global DNN robustness. More specifically, we propose a novel concept of global adversarial example pairs in which each pair of two examples are close to each other but have different class labels predicted by the DNN. We further propose two families of global attack methods a…

Deep neural networks have demonstrated cutting edge performance on various tasks including classification. However, it is well known that adversarially designed imperceptible perturbation of the input can mislead advanced classifiers. In this paper, Permutation Phase Defense (PPD), is proposed as a novel method to resist adversarial attacks. PPD combines random permutation of the image with phase component of its Fourier transform. The basic idea behind this approach is to turn adversarial defense problems analogously into symmetric cryptography, which relies solely on safekeeping of the keys …

DNN is presenting human-level performance for many complex intelligent tasks in real-world applications. However, it also introduces ever-increasing security concerns. For example, the emerging adversarial attacks indicate that even very small and often imperceptible adversarial input perturbations can easily mislead the cognitive function of deep learning systems (DLS). Existing DNN adversarial studies are narrowly performed on the ideal software-level DNN models with a focus on single uncertainty factor, i.e. input perturbations, however, the impact of DNN model reshaping on adversarial atta…
Inspired by biophysical principles underlying nonlinear dendritic computation in neural circuits, we develop a scheme to train deep neural networks to make them robust to adversarial attacks. Our scheme generates highly nonlinear, saturated neural networks that achieve state of the art performance on gradient based adversarial examples on MNIST, despite never being exposed to adversarially chosen examples during training. Moreover, these networks exhibit unprecedented robustness to targeted, iterative schemes for generating adversarial examples, including second-order methods. We further ident…

Adversarial training has been shown to regularize deep neural networks in addition to increasing their robustness to adversarial examples. However, its impact on very deep state of the art networks has not been fully investigated. In this paper, we present an efficient approach to perform adversarial training by perturbing intermediate layer activations and study the use of such perturbations as a regularizer during training. We use these perturbations to train very deep models such as ResNets and show improvement in performance both on adversarial and original test data. Our experiments highl…

Despite the significant advances in deep learning over the past decade, a major challenge that limits the wide-spread adoption of deep learning has been their fragility to adversarial attacks. This sensitivity to making erroneous predictions in the presence of adversarially perturbed data makes deep neural networks difficult to adopt for certain real-world, mission-critical applications. While much of the research focus has revolved around adversarial example creation and adversarial hardening, the area of performance measures for assessing adversarial robustness is not well explored. Motivate…
Recent advances in adversarial Deep Learning (DL) have opened up a largely unexplored surface for malicious attacks jeopardizing the integrity of autonomous DL systems. With the wide-spread usage of DL in critical and time-sensitive applications, including unmanned vehicles, drones, and video surveillance systems, online detection of malicious inputs is of utmost importance. We propose DeepFense, the first end-to-end automated framework that simultaneously enables efficient and safe execution of DL models. DeepFense formalizes the goal of thwarting adversarial attacks as an optimization proble…

Graph deep learning models, such as graph convolutional networks (GCN) achieve remarkable performance for tasks on graph data. Similar to other types of deep models, graph deep learning models often suffer from adversarial attacks. However, compared with non-graph data, the discrete features, graph connections and different definitions of imperceptible perturbations bring unique challenges and opportunities for the adversarial attacks and defenses for graph data. In this paper, we propose both attack and defense techniques. For attack, we show that the discreteness problem could easily be reso…
Here, we present a novel approach to solve the problem of reconstructing perceived stimuli from brain responses by combining probabilistic inference with deep learning. Our approach first inverts the linear transformation from latent features to brain responses with maximum a posteriori estimation and then inverts the nonlinear transformation from perceived stimuli to latent features with adversarial training of convolutional neural networks. We test our approach with a functional magnetic resonance imaging experiment and show that it can generate state-of-the-art reconstructions of perceived …
Deep learning methods have achieved great success in solving computer vision tasks, and they have been widely utilized in artificially intelligent systems for image processing, analysis, and understanding. However, deep neural networks have been shown to be vulnerable to adversarial perturbations in input data. The security issues of deep neural networks have thus come to the fore. It is imperative to study the adversarial robustness of deep vision algorithms comprehensively. This talk focuses on the adversarial robustness of image classification models and image denoisers. We will discuss the…

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are known to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. A range of defense methods have been proposed to train adversarially robust DNNs, among which adversarial training has demonstrated promising results. However, despite preliminary understandings developed for adversarial training, it is still not clear, from the architectural perspective, what configurations can lead to more robust DNNs. In this paper, we address this gap via a comprehensive investigation on the impact of network width and depth on the robustness of adversarially trained DNNs. Specifically, we make …

A recent paper suggests that Deep Neural Networks can be protected from gradient-based adversarial perturbations by driving the network activations into a highly saturated regime. Here we analyse such saturated networks and show that the attacks fail due to numerical limitations in the gradient computations. A simple stabilisation of the gradient estimates enables successful and efficient attacks. Thus, it has yet to be shown that the robustness observed in highly saturated networks is not simply due to numerical limitations.
Adversarial examples in machine learning for images are widely publicized and explored. Illustrations of misclassifications caused by slightly perturbed inputs are abundant and commonly known (e.g., a picture of panda imperceptibly perturbed to fool the classifier into incorrectly labeling it as a gibbon). Similar attacks on deep learning (DL) for radio frequency (RF) signals and their mitigation strategies are scarcely addressed in the published work. Yet, RF adversarial examples (AdExs) with minimal waveform perturbations can cause drastic, targeted misclassification results, particularly ag…

In this work we study input gradient regularization of deep neural networks, and demonstrate that such regularization leads to generalization proofs and improved adversarial robustness. The proof of generalization does not overcome the curse of dimensionality, but it is independent of the number of layers in the networks. The adversarial robustness regularization combines adversarial training, which we show to be equivalent to Total Variation regularization, with Lipschitz regularization. We demonstrate empirically that the regularized models are more robust, and that gradient norms of images …
While many defences against adversarial examples have been proposed, finding robust machine learning models is still an open problem. The most compelling defence to date is adversarial training and consists of complementing the training data set with adversarial examples. Yet adversarial training severely impacts training time and depends on finding representative adversarial samples. In this paper we propose to train models on output spaces with large class separation in order to gain robustness without adversarial training. We introduce a method to partition the output space into class proto…
Recently, generating adversarial examples has become an important means of measuring robustness of a deep learning model. Adversarial examples help us identify the susceptibilities of the model and further counter those vulnerabilities by applying adversarial training techniques. In natural language domain, small perturbations in the form of misspellings or paraphrases can drastically change the semantics of the text. We propose a reinforcement learning based approach towards generating adversarial examples in black-box settings. We demonstrate that our method is able to fool well-trained mode…
Although deep neural networks have been very successful in image-classification tasks, they are prone to adversarial attacks. To generate adversarial inputs, there has emerged a wide variety of techniques, such as black- and whitebox attacks for neural networks. In this paper, we present DeepSearch, a novel fuzzing-based, query-efficient, blackbox attack for image classifiers. Despite its simplicity, DeepSearch is shown to be more effective in finding adversarial inputs than state-of-the-art blackbox approaches. DeepSearch is additionally able to generate the most subtle adversarial inputs in …
Learning from raw high dimensional data via interaction with a given environment has been effectively achieved through the utilization of deep neural networks. Yet the observed degradation in policy performance caused by imperceptible worst-case policy dependent translations along high sensitivity directions (i.e. adversarial perturbations) raises concerns on the robustness of deep reinforcement learning policies. In our paper, we show that these high sensitivity directions do not lie only along particular worst-case directions, but rather are more abundant in the deep neural policy landscape …
Reinforcement learning policies based on deep neural networks are vulnerable to imperceptible adversarial perturbations to their inputs, in much the same way as neural network image classifiers. Recent work has proposed several methods to improve the robustness of deep reinforcement learning agents to adversarial perturbations based on training in the presence of these imperceptible perturbations (i.e. adversarial training). In this paper, we study the effects of adversarial training on the neural policy learned by the agent. In particular, we follow two distinct parallel approaches to investi…
Deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to subtle adversarial perturbations applied to the input. These adversarial perturbations, though imperceptible, can easily mislead the DNN. In this work, we take a control theoretic approach to the problem of robustness in DNNs. We treat each individual layer of the DNN as a nonlinear dynamical system and use Lyapunov theory to prove stability and robustness locally. We then proceed to prove stability and robustness globally for the entire DNN. We develop empirically tight bounds on the response of the output layer, or any hidden layer, to adversaria…

Adversarial deep learning is to train robust DNNs against adversarial attacks, which is one of the major research focuses of deep learning. Game theory has been used to answer some of the basic questions about adversarial deep learning such as the existence of a classifier with optimal robustness and the existence of optimal adversarial samples for a given class of classifiers. In most previous work, adversarial deep learning was formulated as a simultaneous game and the strategy spaces are assumed to be certain probability distributions in order for the Nash equilibrium to exist. But, this as…
Gesture-based authentication has emerged as a non-intrusive, effective means of authenticating users on mobile devices. Typically, such authentication techniques have relied on classical machine learning techniques, but recently, deep learning techniques have been applied this problem. Although prior research has shown that deep learning models are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, relatively little research has been done in the adversarial domain for behavioral biometrics. In this research, we collect tri-axial accelerometer gesture data (TAGD) from 46 users and perform classification experi…
Many previous proposals for adversarial training of deep neural nets have included di- rectly modifying the gradient, training on a mix of original and adversarial examples, using contractive penalties, and approximately optimizing constrained adversarial ob- jective functions. In this paper, we show these proposals are actually all instances of optimizing a general, regularized objective we call DataGrad. Our proposed DataGrad framework, which can be viewed as a deep extension of the layerwise contractive au- toencoder penalty, cleanly simplifies prior work and easily allows extensions such a…

Motivated by the need for fair algorithmic decision making in the age of automation and artificially-intelligent technology, this technical report provides a theoretical insight into adversarial training for fairness in deep learning. We build upon previous work in adversarial fairness, show the persistent tradeoff between fair predictions and model performance, and explore further mechanisms that help in offsetting this tradeoff.
Adversarial examples are inevitable on the road of pervasive applications of deep neural networks (DNN). Imperceptible perturbations applied on natural samples can lead DNN-based classifiers to output wrong prediction with fair confidence score. It is increasingly important to obtain models with high robustness that are resistant to adversarial examples. In this paper, we survey recent advances in how to understand such intriguing property, i.e. adversarial robustness, from different perspectives. We give preliminary definitions on what adversarial attacks and robustness are. After that, we st…
Deep compressed sensing assumes the data has sparse representation in a latent space, i.e., it is intrinsically of low-dimension. The original data is assumed to be mapped from a low-dimensional space through a low-to-high-dimensional generator. In this work, we propound how to design such a low-to-high dimensional deep learning-based generator suiting for compressed sensing, while satisfying robustness to universal adversarial perturbations in the latent domain. We also justify why the noise is considered in the latent space. The work is also buttressed with theoretical analysis on the robust…

Nowadays, Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) report state-of-the-art results in many machine learning areas, including intrusion detection. Nevertheless, recent studies in computer vision have shown that DNNs can be vulnerable to adversarial attacks that are capable of deceiving them into misclassification by injecting specially crafted data. In security-critical areas, such attacks can cause serious damage; therefore, in this paper, we examine the effect of adversarial attacks on deep learning-based intrusion detection. In addition, we investigate the effectiveness of adversarial training as a defen…
Recent works have theoretically and empirically shown that deep neural networks (DNNs) have an inherent vulnerability to small perturbations. Applying the Deep k-Nearest Neighbors (DkNN) classifier, we observe a dramatically increasing robustness-accuracy trade-off as the layer goes deeper. In this work, we propose a Deep Adversarially-Enhanced k-Nearest Neighbors (DAEkNN) method which achieves higher robustness than DkNN and mitigates the robustness-accuracy trade-off in deep layers through two key elements. First, DAEkNN is based on an adversarially trained model. Second, DAEkNN makes predic…
The reliability of deep learning algorithms is fundamentally challenged by the existence of adversarial examples, which are incorrectly classified inputs that are extremely close to a correctly classified input. We explore the properties of adversarial examples for deep neural networks with random weights and biases, and prove that for any $p\ge1$, the $\ell^p$ distance of any given input from the classification boundary scales as one over the square root of the dimension of the input times the $\ell^p$ norm of the input. The results are based on the recently proved equivalence between Gaussia…

Deep learning models (with neural networks) have been widely used in challenging tasks such as computer-aided disease diagnosis based on medical images. Recent studies have shown deep diagnostic models may not be robust in the inference process and may pose severe security concerns in clinical practice. Among all the factors that make the model not robust, the most serious one is adversarial examples. The so-called "adversarial example" is a well-designed perturbation that is not easily perceived by humans but results in a false output of deep diagnostic models with high confidence. In this pa…

In practice, deep neural networks have been found to be vulnerable to various types of noise, such as adversarial examples and corruption. Various adversarial defense methods have accordingly been developed to improve adversarial robustness for deep models. However, simply training on data mixed with adversarial examples, most of these models still fail to defend against the generalized types of noise. Motivated by the fact that hidden layers play a highly important role in maintaining a robust model, this paper proposes a simple yet powerful training algorithm, named \emph{Adversarial Noise P…

Nevertheless, our current theoretical understanding on the mathematical foundations of deep learning lags far behind its empirical success. Towards solving the vulnerability of neural networks, however, the field of adversarial robustness has recently become one of the main sources of explanations of our deep models. In this article, we provide an in-depth review of the field of adversarial robustness in deep learn…
Deep learning (DL), despite its enormous success in many computer vision and language processing applications, is exceedingly vulnerable to adversarial attacks. We consider the use of DL for radio signal (modulation) classification tasks, and present practical methods for the crafting of white-box and universal black-box adversarial attacks in that application. We show that these attacks can considerably reduce the classification performance, with extremely small perturbations of the input. In particular, these attacks are significantly more powerful than classical jamming attacks, which raise…
