FARE: Forensic Acceptance Region Estimation for Catching Bait-and-Switch Image Generators

Across generator swaps, including substitutions with similar model versions and model variants, FARE is effective at detecting swaps, consistently outperforming existing baselines at strict operating points, and remains effective under the exact-model and decision-only attacks evaluated in this work.

XPhysICS: Cross-Physical-Domain Threat Grounding for Industrial Control Systems Security

Industrial control system attacks are usually documented in terms of the plant where they occurred: its sensors, actuators, process stages, and control logic. Yet many attacks express a more general physical pattern--such as suppressing flow, corrupting chemical dosing, or driving a vessel toward overflow--that may als...

Werracle: Sub-Cent Intra-Block AI Reflex Oracles and Flash-Loan Circuit Breakers for EVM Smart Contracts

Werracle is presented, a production-grade, zero-storage on-chain AI decision oracle fitting inside a single 32-byte EVM storage slot (bytes32) and demonstrated real-world DeFi efficacy via WerracleFeeHook.sol, a Uniswap v4 dynamic swap fee governor that measures orderbook turbulence on-the-fly and atomically adjusts li...

Subjects, Not Authors: The Authorship Hazard in Agentic Dataspaces

Dataspace connectors decide whether a transfer may occur, not what the transferred value contains, tolerable for contracted applications, not for LLM agents that compose tool calls and spawn sub-agents. Research on agents that generate governance artifacts evaluates output quality; who may authorize an artifact for use...

Coding Agents Aren't Enough! Evaluating an Enterprise Security Brain for Agentic Cloud Investigations

Cloud-security investigation is dominated by population tasks: which identities can read a data store, how many resources fail a control, which assets are reachable from another account. These resolve against a complete inventory, not a named object. A partial answer to one is not a partial result. It is a different re...

ScopeBench: Do Agents Preserve Engagement Boundaries Under Goal Pressure?

Agents are increasingly deployed with real autonomy in web application and network penetration testing, where a single out-of-scope action can breach a client's engagement boundary. Existing offensive-security benchmarks measure raw hacking capability; as those benchmarks saturate, the real barrier to deployment is a s...

Privacy Leakage Through AI-mediated Analysis of Smartphone Data

Priva-See is built, an LLM-based inference system for app-collected user data that reflects the best understanding of how real-life adtech companies would leverage machine learning to build user profiles, and suggests changes to how smartphone OSes should gather user consent for data access, to better inform users abou...

Diffusion-aided Task-oriented Semantic Communications with Model Inversion Attack

Semantic communication enhances transmission efficiency by conveying semantic information rather than raw input symbol sequences. Task-oriented semantic communication further aims to retain only task-specific information, thereby achieving greater bandwidth savings. However, these neural-network-based communication sys...

Calpric: Inclusive and Fine-grain Labeling of Privacy Policies with Crowdsourcing and Active Learning

A significant challenge to training accurate deep learning models on privacy policies is the cost and difficulty of obtaining a large and comprehensive set of training data. To address these challenges, we present Calpric, which combines automatic text selection and segmentation, active learning and the use of crowdsou...

Lossless Anti-Distillation Sampling

Frontier commercial generative models face a growing threat from distillation, whereby a distiller harvests generated responses and trains a competing model at drastically lower cost. Existing defenses either modify the generation to degrade distillation performance, sacrificing response quality, or rely on behavioral...
