arXiv:2605. 13922v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: During thDuring the last few years, the term Mechanistic Interpretability, a specific area, under the umbrella of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), has been introduced, to explain the decisions made by complex machine learning (ML) models in critical systems like UAV intrusion detection systems (UAVIDS).

Beyond Gradient-Based Attacks: Adversarial Robustness and Explainability Stability in Cybersecurity Classifiers

Adversarial attacks on cybersecurity classifiers pose a dual threat: degrading predictions and destabilising the SHAP-based explanations that security analysts rely on to understand and triage alerts. We extend our prior MLP conference study to Random Forest and XGBoost across four tabular security datasets (phishing URLs, UNSW-NB15, NF-ToN-IoT, HIKARI-2021), evaluating five attacks including three black-box methods applicable to non-differentiable tree models.

Probabilistic Robustness-driven Universal Adversarial Perturbations with Explainability against Deep Reinforcement Learning-based Intrusion Detection System

The paper introduces a new method for generating universal adversarial perturbations (UAPs) against deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based intrusion detection systems (IDS). It leverages Probabilistic Robustness (PR) as a post‑hoc metric to guide UAP creation, integrating PR directly into the optimization objective. The authors further develop PX‑UAP, which incorporates explainable AI (XAI) to shape perturbations within realistic domain constraints, and provide a theoretical analysis of its design. Experiments show PX‑UAP outperforms existing UAP techniques in attack effectiveness.
