BaFFLe: Backdoor Detection via Feedback-based Federated Learning

Recent studies have shown that federated learning (FL) is vulnerable to poisoning attacks that inject a backdoor into the global model. These attacks are effective even when performed by a single client, and undetectable by most existing defensive techniques. In this paper, we propose Backdoor detection via Feedback-based Federated Learning (BAFFLE), a novel defense to secure FL against backdoor a...
