These perturbations may, however, be ineffective against classifiers that were not {seen} during the generation of the perturbation, or against defenses {based on re-quantization, median filtering or JPEG compression. To address these limitations, we present an adversarial attack {that is} specifically designed to protect visual content against { unseen} classifiers and known defenses. We craft perturbations using an iterative process that is based on the Fast Gradient Signed Method and {that} randomly selects a classifier and a defense, at each iteration}. This randomization prevents an undesirable overfitting to a specific classifier or defense. We validate the proposed attack in both targeted and untargeted settings on the private classes of the Places365-Standard dataset. Using ResNet18, ResNet50, AlexNet and DenseNet161 {as classifiers}, the performance of the proposed attack exceeds that of eleven state-of-the-art attacks.
