To understand the sensitivity under attacks and to develop defense mechanisms, machine-learning model designers craft worst-case adversarial perturbations with gradient-descent optimization algorithms against the model under evaluation. However, many of the proposed defenses have been shown to provide a false sense of robustness due to failures of the attacks, rather than actual improvements in the machine‐learning models’ robustness, as highlighted by more rigorous evaluations. Although guidelines and best practices have been suggested to improve current adversarial robustness evaluations, the lack of automatic testing and debugging tools makes it difficult to apply these recommendations in a systematic and automated manner. To this end, the analysis of failures in the optimization of adversarial attacks is the only valid strategy to avoid repeating mistakes of the past.

    La Blockchain, technologie derrière Bitcoin, fait l’objet d’un encadrement juridique de plusen plus important, en particulier de la part de l’Union européenne. Curieusement, le mot« Blockchain » n’apparaît pas dans les textes l’encadrant. Les expressions « technologie deregistres distribués » (Distributed ledger technology, DLT), ou, parfois, « registreélectronique » lui sont plutôt privilégiées.[…]

    Orateur : Loïc Miller - CentraleSupélec

    As the European Union develops a legal framework for crypto-assets and data protection, the technological question underlying the emergence of a genuine digital currency remains open. Blockchain today stands as an interdisciplinary field of study at the crossroads of computer science, economics, and law. This presentation will place the ongoing regulatory framework in perspective with the[…]

    Microarchitectural optimizations, such as caches and speculative out-of-order execution, are essential for achieving high performance. However, these same mechanisms also open the door to attacks that can undermine software-enforced security policies. The current gold standard for defending against such attacks is the constant-time programming discipline, which prohibits secret-dependent control[…]
