ResAware: Cross-Environment Website Fingerprinting via Resource-Privileged Distillation

arXiv:2606. 17462v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Website Fingerprinting (WF) attacks achieve high accuracy in controlled laboratory settings, they often degrade substantially in real-world environments due to spatio-temporal drift, browser heterogeneity, proxy obfuscation and etc.

CO-DEFEND: Continuous Decentralized Federated Learning for Secure DoH-Based Threat Detection

arXiv:2504. 01882v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The use of DNS over HTTPS (DoH) tunneling by an attacker to hide malicious activity within encrypted DNS traffic poses a serious threat to network security, as it allows malicious actors to bypass traditional monitoring and intrusion detection systems while evading detection by conventional traffic analysis techniques.

Privacy-Preserving Data Drift Detection and Recovery for Large-Scale LLM Applications via Proxy Representations

arXiv:2608. 08245v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM applications deployed at scale face a fundamental challenge: privacy constraints prevent direct inspection of user interactions, making it difficult to obtain any representative evaluation dataset or to track the ongoing evolution of production traffic.

DMind Benchmark: Toward a Holistic Assessment of LLM Capabilities across the Web3 Domain

arXiv:2504. 16116v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Web3 ecosystem, underpinned by cryptographic primitives and decentralized consensus, represents a high-stakes environment where software vulnerabilities and incentive misalignments translate directly into financial loss.

Enhancing Anomaly Resilience in Research Networks: A Large-Scale Forecasting Benchmark for Dynamic Security Baselining

arXiv:2608. 05605v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Research and Education Networks (RENs) serve as critical infrastructure for scientific discovery, yet they face a unique security paradox: their normal traffic patterns which are characterized by massive, bursty "elephant flows" are statistically indistinguishable from volumetric attacks such as DDoS to conventional monitoring systems.
