• Abstract: With the widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies, cryptojacking has become a significant security threat to crypto wallet users. This paper presents a front-end prototype of an AI-powered security dashboard, namely, CryptoGuard. Developed through a user-centered design process, the prototype was constructed as a high-fidelity, click-through model from Figma mockups to simulate key user interactions. It is designed to assist users in monitoring their login and transaction activity, identifying any suspicious behavior, and enabling them to take action directly within the wallet interface. The dashboard is designed for a general audience, prioritizing an intuitive user experience for non-technical individuals. Although its AI functionality is conceptual, the prototype demonstrates features like visual alerts and reporting. This work is positioned explicitly as a design concept, bridging cryptojacking detection research with human-centered interface design. This paper also demonstrates how usability heuristics can directly inform a tool's ability to support rapid and confident decision-making under real-world threats. This paper argues that practical security tools require not only robust backend functionality but also a user-centric design that communicates risk and empowers users to take meaningful action.

  An extra prompt token, called the switch token in this work, can turn the backdoor mode on, converting a benign model into a backdoored one. To attack a pre-trained model, our proposed attack, named SWARM, learns a trigger and prompt tokens including a switch token. Experiments on diverse visual recognition tasks confirm the success of our switchable backdoor attack, achieving 95%+ attack success rate.

  Identity inference, which aims to make a preliminary inference about account identity, plays a significant role in blockchain security. We present a novel approach to analyze user's behavior from the perspective of the transaction subgraph, which naturally transforms the identity inference task into a graph classification pattern. We also propose a generic end-to-end graph neural network model, named $textI2 textBGNN$, which can accept subgraph as input and learn a function mapping the transaction subgraph pattern to account identity.
