Abstract: Methods and systems for penetration testing of a networked system involve assigning network nodes to disjoint classes based on current information about the compromisability of the network nodes. The classes distinguish between nodes not currently known to be compromisable, nodes that only recently have become known to be compromisable, e.g., by a first method of a attack, and nodes that have been known for a longer time to be compromisable. Nodes that only recently have become known to be compromisable can be re-targeted by the penetration testing system to determine whether such nodes can be compromised using multiple methods of attack and not just using the first method of attack.

Abstract: A system and method for concealing and revealing a human face in media objects may include obtaining a first media object capturing an image of the face; employing a first unit to: extract, from the first media object, a set of features representing the face, and generate a second media object, by embedding the extracted features in an anonymized media object; and employing a second unit to recognize the face based on the second media object.

Abstract: A system and a method of performing face recognition may include: receiving a first facial image, depicting a first face, and a second facial image depicting a second face; applying an ML model on the first image, to produce a first representation vector, and applying the ML model on the second image to produce a second representation vector; comparing the first representation vector and the second representation vector; and associating the first face with the second face based on the comparison, where the ML model is trained to produce the representation vectors from the facial images, based on regions in the facial images that correspond to distinctiveness scores that are beneath a distinctiveness threshold.

Abstract: A system and method for de-identification of an image may include receiving an input image of a human face; iteratively modifying the input image to produce an output image of the human face until: (a) a threshold indicating how unlikely a human is to associate the input image with the output image is reached, and (b) a threshold indicating an ability of a computerized unit to associate the input image with the output image is reached; and providing the output image.

Abstract: To consistently anonymize video, an identity-preserving encoder may be trained with a decoder to preserve identity information unique to an individual in an encoded space. The identity-preserving encoder may encode source video images of a source identity to generate identity-preserving encoded data representing the source identity. A de-identification engine may generate de-identifying encoded data representing a different target identity. A transformation may be generated based on a difference between the identity-preserving and de-identifying encoded data, representing swapping the source identity with the target identity. The identity may be consistently swapped from the source to target in the encoded space by applying the same transformation to the identity-preserving encoded data for the source images.

Abstract: Methods and systems for penetration testing of a networked system by a penetration testing system. In some embodiments, both active and passive validation methods are used during a single penetration testing campaign in a single networked system. In other embodiments, a first penetration testing campaign uses only active validation and a second penetration campaign uses only passive validation, where both campaigns are performed by a single penetration testing system in a single networked system. Node-by-node determination of whether to use active or passive validation can be based on expected extent and/or likelihood of damage from actually compromising a network node using active validation.
