New GNN attack and defense methods proposed

Researchers have developed new methods for attacking and defending graph neural networks (GNNs) against information leakage. The study characterizes how graph properties like homophily and heterophily influence the recoverability of training data. Building on a Markov chain approximation, they propose an attack that reconstructs graph adjacency by aligning representations across GNN layers and a defense that suppresses this sensitive information while maintaining classification accuracy.

    Beyond Homophily: Towards Generalized Graph Reconstruction Attack and Defense

    arXiv:2606.08067v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph neural networks (GNNs) are widely deployed on relational data, yet they can leak sensitive or proprietary information about the training graph adjacency, e.g., social ties, transactions, and interactions. This work studies gra…
