Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) This paper presents security analysis on photonic computing models in All-Photonics Network (APN). New computing architecture and methods, which are different from those in the electronic environments, are adopted in APN. Thus, there may be security threats which are characteristics of the photonic based technology. However, there is no study relating security analysis on APN computing environments. This study presents security threats and their countermeasures which are needed in APN by focusing on optical logic gate and photonic disaggregated computing. We point out the attack possibility such as interception and spoofing attacks and propose the countermeasures against the security threats.
