Large language models (LLMs) in production systems face prompt injections, trojans (backdoors), and manipulation of automatic quality metrics. This thesis develops models, methods, and algorithms for evaluating and improving LLM robustness to adversarial input sequence variations. We propose R_stab(f), a generative rob...
Recent work has shown that large language models (LLMs) can be vulnerable to jailbreak attacks in which harmful intent is obscured through composition with benign tasks. A harmful request refused in isolation may elicit a different response when embedded within a larger, seemingly benign query. We study these compositi...
It is shown that a finite Newton-Schulz iteration preserves the polar factor of its input under these spectral conditions, confirming that the correction survives orthogonalization.
Objective perturbation adds a random linear term to a regularized empirical risk and releases the exact perturbed minimizer. We study the finite computation obtained by releasing the $N$-th iterate of deterministic gradient descent on $w\mapsto F(w;S)+\langle z,w\rangle$, where $z\sim\mathcal N(0,\sigma^2I_d)$ is drawn...

Machine unlearning is needed when data must be removed because of deletion requests, outdated records, or data-quality concerns, while retraining from scratch can be costly. Certified machine unlearning methods provide mathematical guarantees, while deployed systems release concrete finite-precision artifacts produced...
Generative AI enables customized misinformation at scale, yet defenses remain largely reactive. We present empirical findings from a human-subject study (n=504 participants, n=2,438 judgments) in which users classified news fragments by origin (human vs. machine) and veracity (real vs. fake). We organize results using...
Learned classifiers deployed in agentic pipelines face a fundamental reliability problem: predictions are probabilistic inferences, not verified conclusions, and acting on them without grounding in observable evidence leads to compounding failures across downstream stages. Software vulnerability analysis makes this cos...
Machine learning (ML) models memorize and leak training data, causing serious privacy issues to data owners. Training algorithms with differential privacy (DP) have been gaining attention as a solution. However, these algorithms add noise at each training iteration and degrade accuracy, limiting their real-world adopti...
Watermarking enables GenAI providers to verify whether content was generated by their models. A watermark is a hidden signal in the content, whose presence can be detected using a secret watermark key. A core security threat are forgery attacks, where adversaries insert the provider's watermark into content \emph{not}...
LLM agents increasingly decide from evidence assembled by upstream systems: retrievers choose documents, recommenders choose posts, and memory systems choose prior events. Existing evaluations usually hold this evidence fixed, missing failures in which individually ordinary items form a systematically one-sided context...
Security benchmarks for LLM-based agents often report the attack success rate (ASR) as a measure of model robustness and use these scores to compare different models and defense mechanisms, assuming that they describe the security of the agent. In this paper, we explore whether it also influences the benchmark's measur...
It is proved that no finite deterministic black-box test can certify removal, exhibiting an edit that passes exhaustive testing yet provably fails on a survivor pocket that can be made arbitrarily small.
Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.

Critical flaws, compromised release channels and agentic AI threats landed within days of each other in mid-October 2026. Why “Black October” may say more about how well we now find weaknesses than about the attacks themselves. The post Black October?
