Abstract

The past several years have witnessed rapidly increasing use of machine learning (ML) systems in multiple industry sectors. Since risk analysis is one of the most essential parts of the real-world ML system protection practice, there is an urgent need to conduct systematic risk analysis of ML systems. However, it is widely recognized that the existing risk analysis frameworks and techniques, which were developed to analyze enterprise (software) systems and networks, are no longer very suitable for analyzing ML systems. In this paper, we seek to present a vision on how to address two unique ML risk analysis challenges through a new risk analysis framework. This paper intends to take the initial step to bridge the gap between the existing cyber risk analysis frameworks and an ideal ML system risk analysis framework.
