SpliTEE extends the split‑inference architecture of Slalom to large language models by protecting intermediate GPU computations with differential privacy rather than encryption. The authors show that masking intermediate representations is essential, as a prompt‑reconstruction attack can recover prompts with about 80% accuracy. Their global sensitivity analysis bounds the noise needed, and they demonstrate that SpliTEE on Intel TDX achieves near‑double the speed of fully CPU‑based inference and outperforms encryption‑based Slalom while maintaining higher accuracy.

Aegis is a client‑side defense for medical federated learning that protects against model inversion attacks by adding a masking gradient derived from locally synthesized data. The method exploits the fact that attacks fail when the effective batch size exceeds the model’s leakage capacity, turning this bottleneck into a privacy guarantee. Experiments on MNIST, CIFAR‑10, and MedMNIST datasets show that Aegis neutralizes state‑of‑the‑art attacks while preserving model accuracy and adding only modest overhead.
arXiv:2606. 01413v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: It is crucial for modern on-device AI systems that rely on retrieval-augmented inference to release and share datastores without compromising individual privacy.
Heterogeneous Differential Privacy (HDP) in Federated Learning (FL) allows clients to select individual privacy budgets ($\varepsilon_i$) according to institutional policies and data sensitivity. In practice, many HDP-FL systems employ $\varepsilon$-aware server aggregation to improve model utility by re-weighting client updates according to their declared privacy budgets.

Tokenized Key-Gated Adapter Routing (Locket) is a framework that embeds fine‑grained, policy‑driven access control into large language models by training lightweight LoRA adapters for different privacy policies. A gating module associates a learned keyed entry token with a specific adapter, allowing authorized tokens to unlock private knowledge while invalid or missing tokens trigger privacy‑preserving adapters that redact or sanitize sensitive content. Experiments on datasets such as Enron, ECHR, and Yelp with models like Qwen3, Llama‑3.2, and Gemma‑2‑2B show that Locket maintains perplexity comparable to fine‑tuning when the correct token is provided, and significantly reduces PII leakage when the token is absent or invalid, without sacrificing utility.
