Question

Explanation

AAISM classifies model inversion as a privacy/information-leakage threat where adversaries infer or reconstruct sensitive training data or attributes from model outputs--directly jeopardizing confidential information targeted by APTs. While data poisoning, unauthorized tuning, and model distillation present material risks (integrity, governance/IP theft), the scenario's stated objective-- accessing confidential information--most directly maps to inversion. Accordingly, AAISM prioritizes defenses such as output regularization, confidence suppression/calibration, overfitting controls, privacy-preserving techniques, and strict access/telemetry on inference interfaces.
