LLMs have advanced rapidly, raising growing concerns about their safety. Recent work has proposed approaches to detect and defend against attacks including defenses at decoding stage that leverage models'hidden states. However, existing decoding-stage defenses suffer from two limitations. First, they introduce a trade-...
Automatic sign language translation (SLT) has entered consumer products, turning American Sign Language into English text for dictation, messaging, and queries put to a conversational assistant. Child-facing AI and platform trust-and-safety tooling decide on text, using filters on minor accounts and grooming classifier...
Gradient inversion attacks are often presented as a serious privacy threat in federated learning, with recent work reporting increasingly strong reconstructions under favorable experimental settings. However, it remains unclear whether such attacks are feasible in modern, performance-optimized systems deployed in pract...
Cryptocurrencies are widely used, yet current methods for analyzing transactions often rely on opaque, black-box models. While these models may achieve high performance, their outputs are usually difficult to interpret and adapt, making it challenging to capture nuanced behavioral patterns. Large language models (LLMs)...

This paper proposes a framework for constructing a classifier as a safeguard layer, and for developing a complementary diagnostic that identifies which of the classifier's confident decisions can be trusted. This framework, the Latent Diagnostic Taxonomy, consists of (i) constructing a dimensionality-optimized classifi...
Speculative decoding accelerates inference for a large language model (LLM), referred to as the \emph{target model}, by first using a smaller model, referred to as the \emph{draft model}, to generate candidate tokens and then verifying them with the target model for acceptance or rejection. Prior studies primarily focu...
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems are vulnerable to prompt-injection attacks embedded in retrieved content. We introduce RAG-PIBench, a benchmark for RAG-style prompt-injection detection containing 4,876 contextual examples across frozen train, validation, and protected-test splits. Using a leakage-aware con...
AI agents increasingly rely on modular third-party "skills" that are dynamically selected by skill routers to execute complex tasks. While recent studies highlight the threat of prompt injections embedded in these skills, existing evaluations often assume settings where the malicious skill is already selected for execu...
IPv6 extension headers (EHs), such as fragmentation, segment routing, and in-situ telemetry, are operationally important yetwidely dropped in transit, and characterising their behaviour from packet captures is a recurring measurement problem. We ask whetheran explainable miner can recover human-readable rules of EH beh...
Safety alignment in Large Language Models (LLMs) remains vulnerable to backdoor attacks. Existing LLM backdoors are almost all input-centric: activation depends on explicit trigger patterns in the user input, so modern guardrails are built to sanitize the input space. We challenge this assumption with a novel answer-si...
Increasing connectivity to the outside world and the lack of inbuilt security mechanisms have made legacy intra-vehicular networks vulnerable to cyberattacks. Initial research focused on maximising detection accuracy for known and unknown attacks, often using large, full-precision machine learning models. However, embe...
IAM policy analysis typically emphasizes the authorization capabilities encoded in a policy, but security analyst review priority may also depend on the behavioral and environmental context surrounding a policy event. This paper evaluates whether contextual information provides measurable incremental value for interpre...
