论文摘要
即将到来的量子互联网提供的主要服务将在任意两个量子节点之间创建纠缠。我们讨论并分类对量子中继器的攻击，该攻击将扮演与古典互联网路由器相似的角色。我们已经建模了量子中继器网络节点的组件和结构。使用此模型，我们指出攻击向量，然后根据机密性，完整性和可用性来分析攻击。从机密性的角度来看，我们对量子网络的承诺感到放心，但完整性和可用性呈现出古典网络中不存在的新漏洞，并要求护理才能正确处理。我们观察到，经典计算/网络元素的要求会影响系统的整体安全风险。这种基于组件的分析建立了一个框架，以进一步研究网络范围的漏洞。
The main service provided by the coming Quantum Internet will be creating entanglement between any two quantum nodes. We discuss and classify attacks on quantum repeaters, which will serve roles similar to those of classical Internet routers. We have modeled the components for and structure of quantum repeater network nodes. With this model, we point out attack vectors, then analyze attacks in terms of confidentiality, integrity and availability. While we are reassured about the promises of quantum networks from the confidentiality point of view, integrity and availability present new vulnerabilities not present in classical networks and require care to handle properly. We observe that the requirements on the classical computing/networking elements affect the systems' overall security risks. This component-based analysis establishes a framework for further investigation of network-wide vulnerabilities.
