IEEE/OPTICA Journal of Optical Communications and Networking (JOCN), 2022.
We propose Light Path SECurity (LPsec), a secure cryptographic solution for optical connections that involves fast data encryption using stream ciphers and key exchange using Diffie-Hellman (DH) protocol through the optical channel.
