• Abstract: Facial recognition models are increasingly employed by commercial enterprises, government agencies, and cloud service providers for identity verification, consumer services, and surveillance. These models are often trained using vast amounts of facial data processed and stored in cloud-based platforms, raising significant privacy concerns. Users' facial images may be exploited without their consent, leading to potential data breaches and misuse. This survey presents a comprehensive review of current methods aimed at preserving facial image privacy in cloud-based services. We categorize these methods into two primary approaches: image obfuscation-based protection and adversarial perturbation-based protection. We provide an in-depth analysis of both categories, offering qualitative and quantitative comparisons of their effectiveness. Additionally, we highlight unresolved challenges and propose future research directions to improve privacy preservation in cloud computing environments.

  The study pioneers a comprehensive privacy protection framework that safeguards image data privacy concurrently during data sharing and model publication. We propose an interactive image privacy protection framework that utilizes generative machine learning models to modify image information at the attribute level. Within this framework, we instantiate two modules: a differential privacy diffusion model for protecting attribute information in images and a feature unlearning algorithm for efficient updates of the trained model on the revised image dataset.

  In this paper, we propose a novel face privacy protection method based on diffusion models, dubbed Diff-Privacy. Specifically, we train our proposed multi-scale image inversion module (MSI) to obtain a set of SDM format conditional embeddings of the original image. Based on the conditional embeddings, we design corresponding embedding scheduling strategies and construct different energy functions during the denoising process to achieve anonymization and visual identity information hiding.

  We propose and evaluate a solution that applies lessons learned from the adversarial examples literature to modify facial photos in a privacy-preserving manner before they are uploaded to social media. F FoggySight's core feature is a community protection strategy where users acting as protectors of privacy for others upload decoy photos generated by adversarial machine learning algorithms. We explore different settings for this scheme and find that it does enable protection of facial privacy -- including against a facial recognition service with unknown internals.
