arXiv:2608. 07274v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Split Federated Learning (SFL) facilitates privacy-preserving collaborative training with reduced client-side overhead.
The paper introduces FedIoC, a federated learning framework that embeds structured threat indicators into gradient updates using a supervised contrastive loss. By aligning gradients from clients that share indicators for the same attack campaign, the server can cluster updates via cosine similarity to recover global campaign patterns without transmitting sensitive indicators. Experiments on two public threat‑detection benchmarks show that the server successfully identifies cross‑organizational campaign cohorts from fragmented local data.
arXiv:2511. 13749v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep neural networks are known to be vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, which are small, carefully crafted inputs that lead to incorrect predictions.
FedNIA is a defense framework for federated learning that identifies and excludes malicious clients without needing a central test dataset. It works by injecting random noise inputs and analyzing layerwise activation patterns with an autoencoder to detect abnormal behaviors caused by data poisoning. The method can counter various attack types—including sample poisoning, label flipping, and backdoors—even when multiple attackers collaborate, and shows strong performance on non‑iid federated datasets.
arXiv:2609.07147v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning, as a privacy-preserving distributed machine learning paradigm, faces significant threats from backdoor attacks. Compared to central...
