Analysis of adversarial attacks against CNN-based image forgery detectors
With the ubiquitous diffusion of social networks, images are becoming a
dominant and powerful communication channel. Not surprisingly, they are also
increasingly subject to manipulations aimed at distorting information and
spreading fake news. In recent years, the scientific community has devoted
major efforts to contrast this menace, and many image forgery detectors have
been proposed. Currently, due to the success of deep learning in many
multimedia processing tasks, there is high interest towards CNN-based
detectors, and early results are already very promising. Recent studies in
computer vision, however, have shown CNNs to be highly vulnerable to
adversarial attacks, small perturbations of the input data which drive the
network towards erroneous classification. In this paper we analyze the
vulnerability of CNN-based image forensics methods to adversarial attacks,
considering several detectors and several types of attack, and testing
performance on a wide range of common manipulations, both easily and hardly
detectable
Artificial intelligence in the cyber domain: Offense and defense
Artificial intelligence techniques have grown rapidly in recent years, and their applications in practice can be seen in many fields, ranging from facial recognition to image analysis. In the cybersecurity domain, AI-based techniques can provide better cyber defense tools and help adversaries improve methods of attack. However, malicious actors are aware of the new prospects too and will probably attempt to use them for nefarious purposes. This survey paper aims at providing an overview of how artificial intelligence can be used in the context of cybersecurity in both offense and defense.Web of Science123art. no. 41
