Protect-IT'25 as a part of ACM AsiaCCS 2025
2nd Workshop on Security, Privacy and Information Theory
August 26, 2025 Hanoi, Vietnam
Scope and topics of interest: Protect-IT focuses on the security and privacy of machine learning (ML) from an information-theoretic standpoint. ML systems rely on extensive datasets, often containing sensitive personal information, posing a threat to user privacy and security. Protect-IT aims to bring together experts in machine learning, (algorithmic) fairness and information theory to explore, develop, and evaluate privacy, security, and fairness attacks against ML algorithms along with defense strategies to counter them.
- Information leakage, data correlation
- Defining and quantifying privacy
- Differential privacy and private data analysis
- Machine learning and privacy
- Transparency, robustness and abuse in privacy systems
- Information theoretic foundations of security and privacy
- Cryptographic tools for privacy
- Algorithmic fairness
- Adversarial learning
- Intrusion detection
- Privacy and security attacks and defenses
