AI for Security and Security for AI
Abstract
On one side, the security industry has successfully adopted some AI-based techniques. Use varies from mitigating denial of service attacks, forensics, intrusion detection systems, homeland security, critical infrastructures protection, sensitive information leakage, access control, and malware detection. On the other side, we see the rise of Adversarial AI. Here the core idea is to subvert AI systems for fun and profit. The methods utilized for the production of AI systems are systematically vulnerable to a new class of vulnerabilities. Adversaries are exploiting these vulnerabilities to alter AI system behavior to serve a malicious end goal. This panel discusses some of these aspects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
