FLASH: Fast and Robust Framework for Privacy-preserving Machine Learning (original) (raw)

Privacy-preserving machine learning (PPML) via Secure Multi-party Computation (MPC) has gained momentum in the recent past. Assuming a minimal network of pair-wise private channels, we propose an efficient four-party PPML framework over rings ℤ2ℓ, FLASH, the first of its kind in the regime of PPML framework, that achieves the strongest security notion of Guaranteed Output Delivery (all parties obtain the output irrespective of adversary’s behaviour). The state of the art ML frameworks such as ABY3 by Mohassel et.al (ACM CCS’18) and SecureNN by Wagh et.al (PETS’19) operate in the setting of 3 parties with one malicious corruption but achieve the weaker security guarantee of abort. We demonstrate PPML with real-time efficiency, using the following custom-made tools that overcome the limitations of the aforementioned state-of-the-art– (a) dot product, which is independent of the vector size unlike the state-of-the-art ABY3, SecureNN and ASTRA by Chaudhari et.al (ACM CCSW’19), all of wh...
