Prof. Tian will give a talk at 8th Deep Learning Security and Privacy Workshop.
Artificial-intelligence applications are no longer confined to discrete models running in isolation. With the advancement of GenAI, the AI applications are end-to-end systems that ingest live data, invoke complex toolchains, and operate inside intertwined virtual and physical environments. Yet most security guidance still targets individual components, leaving systemic blind spots that adversaries eagerly exploit. This talk focuses on AI system security beyond model-centric hardening. In particular, I will discuss two main points: secure the entire pipeline of AI supply chain, and secure AI’s interactions with cyber and physical environments.
Faysal Hossain Shezan
PhD Student grad in 2023
I am an assistant professor at the University of Texas at Arlington. My research focus on the intersection of security & privacy with cyber-physical systems, medical healthcare, software engineering, and machine learning. I am especially interested in data-driven security and privacy analysis in cross-platform interaction of emerging systems and platforms. The goal of my research is to measure the attack surface of the IoT platforms, analyze privacy leakages among inter-connected home automation applications, privacy leakages in medical healthcare, and investigate the enforcement of privacy policies. My work has been published in several top tier security & privacy and system conferences, including- NDSS, UBICOMP/IMWUT, WWW, PoPETs, SOUPS. My research findings are acknowledged by several well-known companies (such as., Google) and resulted in the publishing of several CVEs. I am fortunate to receive a few awards and recognition during his Ph.D., including- CPS Rising Stars, UVA endowed graduate fellowship award, Link Lab outstanding graduate research award, and several travel grants. I received my PhD at University of Virginia (UVA) under the supervision of Professor Yuan Tian in 2023. I interned at Baidu Research (with Dr. Ping Li and Dr. Yingjie Lao). Before joining UVA, I was a software engineer (in security lab) at Kona Software Lab ltd in Bangladesh. I have completed my bachelor’s degree from the Computer Science and Engineering department of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology in 2016.
