Experimental Demonstration of DDoS Mitigation over a Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) Network Using Software Defined Networking (SDN)
We experimentally demonstrate, for the first time, DDoS mitigation of QKD-based networks utilizing a software defined network application. Successful quantum-secured link allocation is achieved after a DDoS attack based on real-time monitoring of quantum parameters. OCIS codes: (060.0060) Fiber optics and optical communications; (060.1155) All-optical networks (060.5565); Quantum cryptography; ...
متن کاملQuantum Key Distribution - QKD
This paper provides an overview of quantum key distribution targeted towards the computer science community. A brief description of the relevant principles from quantum mechanics is provided before surveying the most prominent quantum key distribution protocols present in the literature. In particular this paper describes the BB84 protocol and its many variants as well as Eckert's approach thro...
متن کاملSecurity of Software Defined Networks (SDN)
Software defined networking (SDN) is a developing technology which completely changes the architecture and working of traditional networks. There has been growing urgency among networking developers to come up with a new set of devices to support Software Defined Networks and to implement better services in SDN compared to traditional networks. During these activities, security of the packets i...
متن کاملQuantum-Aware Software Defined Networks
Software Defined Networks (SDN) represent a major paradigm change in communications networks. It provides a level of abstraction and independence from the traditional networking practice that allows for a fast path of innovation and, specifically, opens new opportunities for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) networks. In this contribution we explore the implications of this paradigm for the deploy...
متن کاملSoftware-Defined Fragmentation-Aware Elastic Optical Networks Enabled by OpenFlow
We present a software-defined fragmentation-aware elastic optical network, in which an extended OpenFlow-based control plane intelligently routes connection requests to avoid spectrum fragmentation. The overall feasibility and efficiency of the proposed scenario is validated by using both numerical simulation and experimental demonstration. Introduction Optical networks are evolving from a fixe...
