The Creation and Analysis of Government AI Transparency Statements in Australia

Governments increasingly deploy AI in public services, making transparency essential for accountability and public trust. Australia's Standard for AI Transparency Statements (AITS) requires government bodies to disclose how AI is used in practice, yet little empirical evidence exists on how these requirements are realised in documents. This paper presents a government AITS dataset, dubbed AITS-101, and provides one of the first systematic analysis of their content. Using stylometric, quantitative, and qualitative document analyses, we examine disclosure coverage, structure, and recurring patterns. Our findings reveal substantial variation in AI-related practice disclosure, highlight gaps between policy intent and implementation, and inform the design of more effective public-sector AI transparency standards.

Secure and Efficient Access Control for Computer-Use Agents via Context Space

Large language model (LLM)-based computer-use agents represent a convergence of AI and OS capabilities, enabling natural language to control system- and application-level functions. However, due to LLMs' inherent uncertainty issues, granting agents control over computers poses significant security risks. When agent actions deviate from user intentions, they can cause irreversible consequences. Existing mitigation approaches, such as user confirmation and LLM-based dynamic action validation, still suffer from limitations in usability, security, and performance. To address these challenges, we propose CSAgent, a system-level, static policy-based access control framework for computer-use agents. To bridge the gap between static policy and dynamic context and user intent, CSAgent introduces intent- and context-aware policies, and provides an automated toolchain to assist developers in constructing and refining them. CSAgent enforces these policies through an optimized OS service, ensuring that agent actions can only be executed under specific user intents and contexts. CSAgent supports protecting agents that control computers through diverse interfaces, including API, CLI, and GUI. We implement and evaluate CSAgent, which successfully defends against all attacks in the benchmarks while introducing only 1.99% performance overhead and 5.42% utility decrease.

Towards Context-aware Mobile Privacy Notice: Implementation of A Deployable Contextual Privacy Policies Generator

Lengthy and legally phrased privacy policies impede users' understanding of how mobile applications collect and process personal data. Prior work proposed Contextual Privacy Policies (CPPs) for mobile apps to display shorter policy snippets only in the corresponding user interface contexts, but the pipeline could not be deployable in real-world mobile environments. In this paper, we present PrivScan, the first deployable CPP Software Development Kit (SDK) for Android. It captures live app screenshots to identify GUI elements associated with types of personal data and displays CPPs in a concise, user-facing format. We provide a lightweight floating button that offers low-friction, on-demand control. The architecture leverages remote deployment to decouple the multimodal backend pipeline from a mobile client comprising five modular components, thereby reducing on-device resource demands and easing cross-platform portability. A feasibility-oriented evaluation shows an average execution time of 9.15\,s, demonstrating the practicality of our approach. The source code of PrivScan is available at https://github.com/buyanghc/PrivScan and the demo video can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ck-25otfyHc.
