DecodingTrust-Agent Platform (DTap): A Controllable and Interactive Red-Teaming Platform for AI Agents

AI agents are increasingly deployed across diverse domains to automate complex workflows through long-horizon and high-stakes action executions. Due to their high capability and flexibility, such agents raise significant security and safety concerns. A growing number of real-world incidents have shown that adversaries can easily manipulate agents into performing harmful actions, such as leaking API keys, deleting user data, or initiating unauthorized transactions. Evaluating agent security is inherently challenging, as agents operate in dynamic, untrusted environments involving external tools, heterogeneous data sources, and frequent user interactions. However, realistic, controllable, and reproducible environments for large-scale risk assessment remain largely underexplored. To address this gap, we introduce the DecodingTrust-Agent Platform (DTap), the first controllable and interactive red-teaming platform for AI agents, spanning 14 real-world domains and over 50 simulation environments that replicate widely used systems such as Google Workspace, Paypal, and Slack. To scale the risk assessment of agents in DTap, we further propose DTap-Red, the first autonomous red-teaming agent that systematically explores diverse injection vectors (e.g., prompt, tool, skill, environment, combinations) and autonomously discovers effective attack strategies tailored to varying malicious goals. Using DTap-Red, we curate DTap-Bench, a large-scale red-teaming dataset comprising high-quality instances across domains, each paired with a verifiable judge to automatically validate attack outcomes. Through DTap, we conduct large-scale evaluations of popular AI agents built on various backbone models, spanning security policies, risk categories, and attack strategies, revealing systematic vulnerability patterns and providing valuable insights for developing secure next-generation agents.

UniFed: All-In-One Federated Learning Platform to Unify Open-Source Frameworks

Federated Learning (FL) has become a practical and widely adopted distributed learning paradigm. However, the lack of a comprehensive and standardized solution covering diverse use cases makes it challenging to use in practice. In addition, selecting an appropriate FL framework for a specific use case can be a daunting task. In this work, we present UniFed, the first unified platform for standardizing existing open-source FL frameworks. The platform streamlines the end-to-end workflow for distributed experimentation and deployment, encompassing 11 popular open-source FL frameworks. In particular, to address the substantial variations in workflows and data formats, UniFed introduces a configuration-based schema-enforced task specification, offering 20 editable fields. UniFed also provides functionalities such as distributed execution management, logging, and data analysis. With UniFed, we evaluate and compare 11 popular FL frameworks from the perspectives of functionality, privacy protection, and performance, through conducting developer surveys and code-level investigation. We collect 15 diverse FL scenario setups (e.g., horizontal and vertical settings) for FL framework evaluation. This comprehensive evaluation allows us to analyze both model and system performance, providing detailed comparisons and offering recommendations for framework selection. UniFed simplifies the process of selecting and utilizing the appropriate FL framework for specific use cases, while enabling standardized distributed experimentation and deployment. Our results and analysis based on experiments with up to 178 distributed nodes provide valuable system design and deployment insights, aiming to empower practitioners in their pursuit of effective FL solutions.
