• Co-Evolving Zero-Day Jamming: Adaptive Attack Synthesis and Graph Attention-Based Online Detection

  Ghilas Aissou, R\'emi A. Chou, Taejoon Kim · 21 September 2026

  Effective evaluation of zero-day jamming detectors requires robust adversarial models. However, existing attack models often assume prior knowledge of the target receiver, limiting their utility as evaluation benchmarks. On the detection side, existing detectors fail to capture the global temporal-s…

• CITADEL: CSI-Based Jamming Detection and Open-Set Classification for IIoT Networks

  Aymen Bouferroum (FUN), Ildi Alla (uni.lu), Valeria Loscri (FUN), Abderrahim Benslimane (AU), Vincent Lenders (uni.lu) · 23 June 2026

  Radio frequency jamming poses a critical threat to the availability of wireless Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) networks. Existing detection and classification techniques are poorly suited to this setting: coarse signal-strength and cross-layer features lack information richness, while raw I/Q …

• When Alignment Isn't Enough: Response-Path Attacks on LLM Agents

  Mingyu Luo, Zihan Zhang, Zesen Liu, Yuchong Xie, Zhixiang Zhang, Dung Hiu Hilton Yeung, Wai Ip Lai, Ping Chen, Ming Wen, Dongdong She · 6 May 2026

  Bring-Your-Own-Key (BYOK) agent architectures let users route LLM traffic through third-party relays, creating a critical integrity gap: a malicious relay can modify an aligned LLM response after generation but before agent execution. We formalize this post-alignment tampering threat and show that, …

• Explainable and Hardware-Efficient Jamming Detection for 5G Networks Using the Convolutional Tsetlin Machine

  Vojtech Halenka, Mohammadreza Amini, Per-Arne Andersen, Ole-Christoffer Granmo, Burak Kantarci · 10 March 2026

  All applications in fifth-generation (5G) networks rely on stable radio-frequency (RF) environments to support mission-critical services in mobility, automation, and connected intelligence. Their exposure to intentional interference or low-power jamming threatens availability and reliability, especi…

• Joint Optimization of Model Partitioning and Resource Allocation for Anti-Jamming Collaborative Inference Systems

  Mengru Wu, Jiawei Li, Jiaqi Wei, Bin Lyu, Kai-Kit Wong, Hyundong Shin · 4 March 2026

  With the increasing computational demands of deep neural network (DNN) inference on resource-constrained devices, DNN partitioning-based device-edge collaborative inference has emerged as a promising paradigm. However, the transmission of intermediate feature data is vulnerable to malicious jamming,…

• Jamming Detection in Cell-Free MIMO with Dynamic Graphs

  Ali Hossary, Laura Crosara, Stefano Tomasin · 13 January 2026

  Jamming attacks pose a critical threat to wireless networks, particularly in cell-free massive MIMO systems, where distributed access points and user equipment (UE) create complex, time-varying topologies. This paper proposes a novel jamming detection framework leveraging dynamic graphs and graph co…

• Proof of Authenticity of General IoT Information with Tamper-Evident Sensors and Blockchain

  Kenji Saito · 23 December 2025

  Sensor data in IoT (Internet of Things) systems is vulnerable to tampering or falsification when transmitted through untrusted services. This is critical because such data increasingly underpins real-world decisions in domains such as logistics, healthcare, and other critical infrastructure. We prop…

• Coordinated Anti-Jamming Resilience in Swarm Networks via Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

  Bahman Abolhassani, Tugba Erpek, Kemal Davaslioglu, Yalin E. Sagduyu, Sastry Kompella · 19 December 2025

  Reactive jammers pose a severe security threat to robotic-swarm networks by selectively disrupting inter-agent communications and undermining formation integrity and mission success. Conventional countermeasures such as fixed power control or static channel hopping are largely ineffective against su…

• SAJD: Self-Adaptive Jamming Attack Detection in AI/ML Integrated 5G O-RAN Networks

  Md Habibur Rahman, Md Sharif Hossen, Nathan H. Stephenson, Vijay K. Shah, Aloizio Da Silva · 25 November 2025

  The open radio access network (O-RAN) enables modular, intelligent, and programmable 5G network architectures through the adoption of software-defined networking (SDN), network function virtualization (NFV), and implementation of standardized open interfaces. It also facilitates closed loop control …

• Mobile Jamming Mitigation in 5G Networks: A MUSIC-Based Adaptive Beamforming Approach

  Olivia Holguin, Rachel Donati, Seyed bagher Hashemi Natanzi, Bo Tang · 19 November 2025

  Mobile jammers pose a critical threat to 5G networks, particularly in military communications. We propose an intelligent anti-jamming framework that integrates Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) for high-resolution Direction-of-Arrival (DoA) estimation, Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (…
