AI Security Papers Guide (BIG4 Venues)

Overview

A curated collection of AI security papers from the top-4 security conferences: IEEE S&P, ACM CCS, USENIX Security, and NDSS. Covers adversarial attacks, model stealing, data poisoning, privacy attacks, deepfake detection, and LLM security. Organized by year and venue, focusing exclusively on peer-reviewed work from these prestigious venues.

Research Trends

### Emerging Areas (2024-2025)
1. **LLM security** — Jailbreaking, prompt injection, agent attacks
2. **Supply chain attacks** — Poisoned models, malicious packages
3. **Multi-modal attacks** — Cross-modal adversarial examples
4. **Agent security** — Attacks on LLM-based autonomous systems
5. **Watermarking** — LLM output detection, IP protection
6. **Unlearning** — Machine unlearning verification and attacks

Use Cases
