In this paper, we analyze the effect of colluded statistical attacks and show that collusion could cause performance degradation in terms of both false-alarm and detection probabilities, which is not possible via independent attacks. Closed-form expressions for system performance under the majority fusion rule are provided for a generalized form of colluded attacks. Then, for specific scenarios of collusion and mimicry attacks, we study the conditions under which the probabilities of false alarm and detection are both degraded.text::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
