Three tricks detect poisoned identities at training and filter inputs at inference.

Backdoor attacks via data poisoning are targeted. The first defense detects poisoned identities during training. The last two filter suspicious inputs at inference before responses. Each method includes motivation, algorithms and evaluation on realistic face recognition workloads.

Key facts
  • Training-time detection of poisoned identities
  • Inference-time input filtering
  • Targets third-party training data
  • Practical hardening for providers
  • Evaluated on face recognition pipelines

The protection of mature, multi-stage Face Recognition Systems is crucial to system providers. This technical report targets the threat model most relevant to industry practitioners: although model training is performed in-house, training data is sourced from possibly-compromised third parties. Given this setting, we present three practical defense "tricks" against data poisoning-based backdoor attacks.
