    A hybrid approach to private record matching
    (IEEE Computer Soc, 2012-10) İnan, Ali; Kantarcıoğlu, Murat; Ghinita, Gabriel; Bertino, Elisa
    Real-world entities are not always represented by the same set of features in different data sets. Therefore, matching records of the same real-world entity distributed across these data sets is a challenging task. If the data sets contain private information, the problem becomes even more difficult. Existing solutions to this problem generally follow two approaches: sanitization techniques and cryptographic techniques. We propose a hybrid technique that combines these two approaches and enables users to trade off between privacy, accuracy, and cost. Our main contribution is the use of a blocking phase that operates over sanitized data to filter out in a privacy-preserving manner pairs of records that do not satisfy the matching condition. We also provide a formal definition of privacy and prove that the participants of our protocols learn nothing other than their share of the result and what can be inferred from their share of the result, their input and sanitized views of the input data sets (which are considered public information). Our method incurs considerably lower costs than cryptographic techniques and yields significantly more accurate matching results compared to sanitization techniques, even when privacy requirements are high.

    A survey on Near Field Communication (NFC) technology
    (Springer, 2013-08) Coşkun, Vedat; Özdenizci Köse, Büşra; Ok, Kerem
    Near Field Communication (NFC) as a promising short range wireless communication technology facilitates mobile phone usage of billions of people throughout the world that offers diverse services ranging from payment and loyalty applications to access keys for offices and houses. Eventually NFC technology integrates all such services into one single mobile phone. NFC technology has emerged lately, and consequently not much academic source is available yet. On the contrary, due to its promising business case options, there will be an increasing amount of work to be studied in the very close future. This paper presents the concept of NFC technology in a holistic approach with different perspectives, including communication essentials with standards, ecosystem and business issues, applications, and security issues. Open research areas and further recommended studies in terms of academic and business point of view are also explored and discussed at the end of each major subject's subsection. This comprehensive survey will be a valuable guide for researchers and academicians as well as for business world interested in NFC technology.

    Closeness and uncertainty aware adversarial examples detection in adversarial machine learning
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2022-07) Tuna, Ömer Faruk; Çatak, Ferhat Özgür; Eskil, Mustafa Taner
    While deep learning models are thought to be resistant to random perturbations, it has been demonstrated that these architectures are vulnerable to deliberately crafted perturbations, albeit being quasi-imperceptible. These vulnerabilities make it challenging to deploy Deep Neural Network (DNN) models in security-critical areas. Recently, many research studies have been conducted to develop defense techniques enabling more robust models. In this paper, we target detecting adversarial samples by differentiating them from their clean equivalents. We investigate various metrics for detecting adversarial samples. We first leverage moment-based predictive uncertainty estimates of DNN classifiers derived through Monte-Carlo (MC) Dropout Sampling. We also introduce a new method that operates in the subspace of deep features obtained by the model. We verified the effectiveness of our approach on different datasets. Our experiments show that these approaches complement each other, and combined usage of all metrics yields 99 % ROC-AUC adversarial detection score for well-known attack algorithms.

    Uncertainty as a Swiss army knife: new adversarial attack and defense ideas based on epistemic uncertainty
    (Springer, 2022-04-02) Tuna, Ömer Faruk; Çatak, Ferhat Özgür; Eskil, Mustafa Taner
    Although state-of-the-art deep neural network models are known to be robust to random perturbations, it was verified that these architectures are indeed quite vulnerable to deliberately crafted perturbations, albeit being quasi-imperceptible. These vulnerabilities make it challenging to deploy deep neural network models in the areas where security is a critical concern. In recent years, many research studies have been conducted to develop new attack methods and come up with new defense techniques that enable more robust and reliable models. In this study, we use the quantified epistemic uncertainty obtained from the model's final probability outputs, along with the model's own loss function, to generate more effective adversarial samples. And we propose a novel defense approach against attacks like Deepfool which result in adversarial samples located near the model's decision boundary. We have verified the effectiveness of our attack method on MNIST (Digit), MNIST (Fashion) and CIFAR-10 datasets. In our experiments, we showed that our proposed uncertainty-based reversal method achieved a worst case success rate of around 95% without compromising clean accuracy.
