- 基于MITRE ATLAS框架构建攻击分类体系,覆盖MLOps全流程
- 归纳真实案例与红队演练中的典型攻击手法,揭示关键风险点
- 提出早期防御方案,适合安全研究人员与工程实践者参考
机器学习运维(MLOps)作为统一开发与部署流程的集成方法,正被广泛采用。然而其高度整合的特性也引入了安全漏洞,使系统易受对抗性攻击——单一配置错误即可导致凭证泄露、数据污染、巨额损失及公众信任受损。本文系统应用MITRE ATLAS框架,结合白皮书与灰色文献综述,全面评估MLOps各阶段潜在威胁。首先回顾相关研究,提出涵盖不同攻击者知识与能力的威胁模型;随后构建映射到具体流程阶段的攻击技术分类体系,辅以红队演练和真实事件案例。进一步提出与之对应的缓解策略,提供可落地的早期防御措施。针对MLOps持续演进的现状,本文还指出了亟待解决的关键研究空白。强调从源头建立强健安全协议的重要性,帮助从业者应对不断演变的网络攻击挑战。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The rapid adoption of machine learning (ML) technologies has driven organizations across diverse sectors to seek efficient and reliable methods to accelerate model development-to-deployment. Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) has emerged as an integrative approach addressing these requirements by unifying relevant roles and streamlining ML workflows. As the MLOps market continues to grow, securing these pipelines has become increasingly critical. However, the unified nature of MLOps ecosystem introduces vulnerabilities, making them susceptible to adversarial attacks where a single misconfiguration can lead to compromised credentials, severe financial losses, damaged public trust, and the poisoning of training data. Our paper presents a systematic application of the MITRE ATLAS (Adversarial Threat Landscape for Artificial-Intelligence Systems) framework, supplemented by reviews of white and grey literature, to systematically assess attacks across different phases of the MLOps ecosystem. We begin by reviewing prior work in this domain, then present our taxonomy and introduce a threat model that captures attackers with different knowledge and capabilities. We then present a structured taxonomy of attack techniques explicitly mapped to corresponding phases of the MLOps ecosystem, supported by examples drawn from red-teaming exercises and real-world incidents. This is followed by a taxonomy of mitigation strategies aligned with these attack categories, offering actionable early-stage defenses to strengthen the security of MLOps ecosystem. Given the gradual evolution and adoption of MLOps, we further highlight key research gaps that require immediate attention. Our work emphasizes the importance of implementing robust security protocols from the outset, empowering practitioners to safeguard MLOps ecosystem against evolving cyber attacks.
