International Research Collaboration: Cybersecurity meets Artificial Intelligence

As attackers have increasing incentives to attack machine learning algorithms, cybersecurity researchers have to develop new defences throughout all layers of IT system: algorithm design, software, and underlying hardware. Moreover, as popularity in AI spikes and competition rapidly grows, protection of Intellectual Property (IP) for pre-trained machine learning models is of unprecedented importance. The rise of embedded and IoT (Internet of Things) devices poses an additional challenge to the development of lightweight secure systems powered by machine learning.
