Title
Opportunities and pitfalls in securing visible light communication on the physical layer.
Abstract
Securing visible light communication (VLC) systems on the physical layer promises to prevent against a variety of attacks. Recent work shows that the adaption of existing legacy radio wave physical layer security (PLS) mechanisms is possible with minor changes. Yet, many adaptations open new vulnerabilities due to distinct propagation characteristics of visible light. A common understanding of threats arising from various attacker capabilities is missing. We specify a new attacker model for visible light physical layer attacks and evaluate the applicability of existing PLS approaches. Our results show that many attacks are not considered in current solutions.
