Multi Step Attack

Multi-step attacks represent a sophisticated class of adversarial attacks that iteratively perturb inputs to compromise machine learning models, exceeding the capabilities of simpler, single-step attacks. Current research focuses on understanding and mitigating these attacks across various domains, including image classification, natural language processing, and network security, employing techniques like gradient-based optimization and graph neural networks to model attack strategies and develop defenses. The ability to design robust defenses against multi-step attacks is crucial for ensuring the reliability and security of machine learning systems in diverse real-world applications, ranging from cybersecurity to the integrity of online social networks.
