As firm as their foundations: creating transferable adversarial examples across downstream tasks with CLIP by Hu, A, Gu, J, Pinto, F, Kamnitsas, K, Torr, PHS

“…In this work, we expose such vulnerabilities among CLIP's downstream models and show that foundation models can serve as a basis for attacking their downstream systems. In particular, we propose a simple yet alarmingly effective adversarial attack strategy termed Patch Representation Misalignment (PRM). …”

A stochastic programming approach for risk management in mobile cloud computing by Hoang, Dinh Thai, Niyato, Dusit, Wang, Ping, Wang, Shaun Shuxun, Nguyen, Diep, Dutkiewicz, Eryk

“…In particular, this framework allows the cloud service provider to select appropriate security solutions, e.g., security software/hardware implementation and insurance policies, to deal with different types of attacks. Furthermore, the stochastic programming approach is adopted to minimize the expected total loss for the cloud service provider under its financial capability and uncertainty of attacks and their potential losses. …”
