Spending the next three days in Philadelphia for USENIX Security - looking forward to meet many people! #usesec24


Some statistics for USENIX Security : - 417 accepted papers - 53% increase in submissions - 356 PC members wrote more than 6,600 reviews - 24 (!) papers directly accepted, more stats in the picture #usesec24


Apparently many not that strong ML security paper submissions, usable security had the highest acceptance rate. Lots of interesting statistics by Davide Balzarotti and Wenyuan Xu regarding USENIX Security, I hope the slides will be available #usesec24


Look at the statistics for the ML-security papers! This is exactly why we need to grow SaTML Conference SaTML Conference for the win!

Today, I present our recent work at USENIX Security titled "Imitation Game: Exploring Brand Impersonation Attacks on Social Media Platforms" in collaboration with awesome researchers - Dario Lazzaro, Efrén López,Adam Oest,Saad, Antonio Cinà , Lea Schönherr and Thorsten Holz.





Recently, Dongdong She et al. raised issues regarding our paper âRevisiting Neural Program Smoothing for Fuzzingâ. Tldr: they highlight two bugs in our code, make inaccurate statements, and ignore all the core issues we raised đ§”: 1/

Ep5. Rebuttal MLFuzz Thanks Irinaâs response. We never heard back from you and Andreas Zeller since last month when we sent the last email to ask if you guys were willing to write an errata of MLFuzz to acknowledge the bugs and wrong conclusion. So I am happy to communicate




I appreciate SIGSAC ACM CCS 2025 in taking a solid first step against review collusions! sigsac.org/protect.html


8/8 đ The paper is available at: arxiv.org/abs/2409.06446. Our code, fine-tuned models, and synthesized data will be available soon for the community to explore at: github.com/hexacoder-ai/hâŠ. Special thanks to all of my collaborators: Lea Schönherr, Thorsten Holz, and Mario Fritz
