Quantum Machine Learning: Perspectives in Cybersecurity

In this work, we give an overview on some recent results related to quantum machine learning (QML) regarding the training of quantum generative adversarial neural networks by means of classical shadows, and a parametric model implemented on a quantum annealer. Then, we argue that QML models can be robust against targeted data corruption and gradient-based attacks, motivating the exploration of the relationship between QML and cybersecurity.
