Abstract Federated Learning (FL) is a paradigm in distributed machine learning, which has gained significant attention in the recent years especially in the domain of Internet of Things. Federated Learning saves communication bandwidth when compared to centralized machine learning process and is also considered to be privacy preserving as the raw data at the clients need not be transmitted to the server for the FL learning. Recent studies on FL have exposed privacy vulnerabilities particularly in the form of Gradient Leakage Attacks (GLA) in which the adversaries can generate training data of the client from shared gradients or model updates from clients. The available solutions in the literature for GLA based on perturbing the gradients from clients leads to a drop in the performance of the FL system while attempting to preserve privacy. We propose HAFedL, an improved novel hessian aware adaptive privacy preserving FL scheme in which the performance of the model is not significantly affected due to the aspects introduced in the FL architecture to improve the privacy of the model against the GLA. The HAFedL is also robust to the data heterogeneity and device heterogeneity (particularly straggler effect) which may be present in the clients participating in the FL. The performance of HAFedL is tested for two applications- IoT device identification and digit classification. The proposed HAFedL scheme can be utilized in privacy sensitive domains such as smart city applications, Industrial Internet of Things, Internet of Robotic Things, Internet of Medical Things, etc. © 2013 IEEE.
