Description

Detection method and device for resisting seed light attack
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of quantum secret communication, and particularly provides a detection method and device for resisting seed light attack.
Background
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is the first quantum information technology to be put into practical use. At present, the technology is mature gradually, and the commercial application is expanding gradually. The quantum key distribution device has the main function of providing a symmetric key distribution mode with information theory safety. The safety key distributed by the QKD is utilized, and the safety of communication can be effectively ensured by combining the encryption mode of cryptography.
The theoretical safety of QKD has been theoretically demonstrated. However, in a real QKD device, there may be some deviation from the theoretical description due to the physical characteristics of the device, providing the potential for an eavesdropper to obtain key information. This type of attack method is called quantum hacking. Practical QKD devices need to design corresponding safeguards against these attacks. Aiming at a light source end, the prior art provides a novel attack means called seed light attack. How to detect whether a QKD device can resist such attacks is a challenge.
The Chinese patent application with publication number of CN 110830108A discloses an anti-attack detection method and device of a laser transmitter of a quantum secret communication system, as shown in figure 1, wherein anti-attack detection equipment comprises a connector, a seed light preparation module and a result analysis module, and a waveform diagram of laser and polarization state and wavelength information are obtained by comparing a waveform diagram I with a waveform diagram II. If the pulse width, the pulse light energy and the pulse generation time of the two waveform diagrams are larger than a preset threshold value I, the average count number of each detector is larger than a preset threshold value II after being detected, and the light wavelength of emitted light is larger than a preset threshold value III, the existence of seed light injection control holes of the laser transmitter of the transmitting party is judged, namely the laser transmitter is controlled by the injection light of an attacker, and if the output light has no obvious difference in the aspects, the laser transmitter has no holes.
However, in the existing detection method, the seed light source adopts a continuous light source, which brings high measurement noise, so that the detection accuracy is not high. The connector generally uses a circulator or a beam splitter, etc., the isolation is limited, for example, 60dB, and the background of the input signal has a great influence on the detection precision. The power of the seed light source should be generally greater than 0dBm, the noise floor after 60dB isolation is about-60 dBm, and the power is more than an order of magnitude higher than that of the quantum signal which is generally lower than-70 dBm.

Detailed Description
Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following examples are provided by way of illustration to fully convey the spirit of the invention to those skilled in the art to which the invention pertains. Thus, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed herein.
In the invention, a detection device and a method for detecting attack on a detected QKD device to judge whether the detected QKD device can resist seed light attack are provided. On the basis of realizing time synchronization between the QKD device to be tested and the detection device by using the synchronous signal of the QKD device to be tested, the pulse optical signal is used as seed light to perform seed light attack, and whether the QKD device to be tested can resist the seed light attack is judged based on single photon detection count (or change) of the quantum optical signal sent by the QKD device to be tested under the attack condition.
Fig. 2-3 show an embodiment of a detection device according to the invention that is resistant to a seed light attack.
As shown in fig. 2-3, the detection device for resisting the attack of the seed light may include a pulse seed light source module, a connector module, a single photon detection module, and a control module.
The pulse seed light source module is used for outputting a pulse seed light signal so as to simulate seed light attack.
As an example, the pulsed seed light source module may be any light source module capable of providing a pulsed laser signal.
The connector module is used for realizing optical connection between the tested QKD device and the single photon detection module and optical connection between the pulse seed light source module and the tested QKD device. For example, the connector module may have a first port, a second port, and a third port, and an optical signal input by the first port will be output by the second port, and an optical signal input by the third port will be output by the first port.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 2, the first, second and third ports of the connector module can be connected to a QKD device under test, a single-photon detection module and a pulsed seed light source module, respectively. Therefore, the quantum optical signal output by the tested QKD device can reach the single-photon detection module by means of the connector module to carry out single-photon detection, and the pulse seed optical signal output by the pulse seed light source module is injected into the tested QKD device to implement seed optical attack.
As examples, the connector module may include a circulator, a beam splitter, or a coupler.
The single photon detection module is used for carrying out single photon detection on the received optical signals so as to obtain detection count data.
As an example, as shown in fig. 2, the single photon detection module may include a single photon detector and a high-precision TDC (time-to-digital converter).
In a single photon detection module, a single photon detector performs single photon detection on an optical signal (e.g., a quantum optical signal) to generate a detection signal.
The TDC performs time measurement on the probe signal to generate probe count data, i.e., obtain a distribution of probe counts over time.
The control module is used for realizing time synchronization between the detected QKD equipment and the detection device based on the synchronous signal of the detected QKD equipment and judging whether the detected QKD equipment can resist the seed light attack based on the single photon detection count of the quantum light signal emitted by the detected QKD equipment under the attack condition.
As shown in fig. 2, the control module may include a time synchronization unit and an analysis judgment unit.
The time synchronization unit is used for realizing time synchronization between the detected QKD equipment and the detection device based on the synchronization signal of the detected QKD equipment.
As an example, the time synchronization unit may control the pulse seed light source module to emit no light, control the measured QKD apparatus to emit delayed scanning light, and obtain the delay amount when the detection count rate is highest based on the detection count data output by the single photon detection module, so that the pulse seed light source module, the single photon detection module (e.g., the single photon detector and the TDC) in the detection apparatus may transmit a synchronization signal (as shown in fig. 2) or a delay amount (as shown in fig. 3) according to the synchronization signal of the measured QKD apparatus and the obtained delay amount, and each module in the detection apparatus may implement time synchronization according to the obtained delay amount based on the synchronization signal of the measured QKD apparatus, so as to implement time synchronization between the detection apparatus and the measured QKD apparatus. For example, a synchronization signal or amount of delay can be sent to the pulsed seed light source module to adjust its light emission delay based on the synchronization signal and amount of delay of the QKD device under test, thereby achieving time synchronization between the pulsed seed light source module and the QKD device under test.
By maintaining time synchronization between the QKD device under test and the detection apparatus, it is enabled to seed the QKD device under test with a pulsed seed optical signal, allowing lower seed optical power, lower noise floor than would be possible with continuous optical seed optical signal, while also allowing single photon detection and acquisition of detection counts (distribution) of the quantum optical signal more accurately in time under the attack conditions, providing a more accurate anti-attack detection effect.
The analysis and judgment unit is used for judging whether the measured QKD equipment can resist the seed light attack or not based on the single photon detection count (or the change) of the quantum light signal emitted by the measured QKD equipment under the attack condition under the condition that the measured QKD equipment and the detection device are in time synchronization.
As an example, the analysis and judgment unit may control the pulse seed light source module and the QKD device to emit light, calculate and obtain an increment of the detection count under the attack condition based on the detection count data of the detection output of the single photon detection module for the quantum light signal, and judge whether the QKD device to be tested can resist the seed light attack according to the increment. For example, it may be determined that the measured QKD device is not resistant to a seed light attack when the increase in the probe count exceeds a preset threshold, or else it is determined that the measured QKD device is resistant to a seed light attack.
Preferably, the control module may further comprise a background measurement unit for obtaining a background detection count of the detection device.
As an example, the background measurement unit may control the pulsed seed light source module to emit light, control the QKD device under test to emit no light, and obtain the background count of the detection device according to the detection count data output by the single photon detection module.
In a preferred example, a single photon detector may be employed as a gated single photon detector. Accordingly, the time synchronization unit may provide a synchronization signal or a delay amount to the single photon detector based on the synchronization signal of the QKD device under test and the obtained delay amount to achieve time synchronization between the QKD device under test and the single photon detector. In this way, the gated single photon detector can detect single photons only during the arrival of the quantum light signal, so that the background signal from the pulse seed light source module falls outside the gating of the single photon detector, and noise is effectively reduced.
Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that when a free-running single photon detector is used in the single photon detection module, there is no need to time synchronize between the QKD device under test and the single photon detector, where noise due to the background signal of the pulsed seed light source module is present.
Fig. 4 and 5 show a further embodiment of a detection device according to the invention against a seed light attack, which is further provided with an optical path control module on the basis of the device shown in fig. 2 and 3. In the following, only the differences from the embodiments shown in fig. 2 and 3 will be described for the sake of brevity, and the same points will not be repeated.
Similarly, fig. 4 shows that the synchronization signals are provided by the time synchronization unit directly to the respective modules of the detection device to achieve time synchronization on the respective modules; fig. 5 shows that the delay amounts are provided by the time synchronization unit to the respective modules of the detection apparatus so that the respective modules can achieve time synchronization according to the obtained delay amounts based on the synchronization signals provided by the QKD device under test.
As shown in fig. 4 and 5, an optical path control module may be disposed between the connector module and the single photon detection module for controlling the on-off of an optical path therebetween.
In this embodiment, the time synchronization unit of the control module can provide a synchronization signal or an amount of delay to the optical path control module based on the synchronization signal of the QKD device under test and the amount of delay obtained.
The optical path control module can perform on-off control on the optical path based on the synchronous signal, so that only the quantum optical signal output by the detected QKD device under the attack condition (namely, when the pulse seed optical signal is injected into the detected QKD device) can enter the single photon detection module through the optical path control module, and the optical path is in an off state at other times so as to prevent other optical signals such as noise from entering the single photon detection module, thereby further reducing the influence of noise floor and improving the detection precision.
In the present invention, the "off state" may be a state in which the optical path is physically broken, or a state in which a great optical loss is provided. Thus, the optical path control module may be an optical switch, an intensity modulator, an acousto-optic modulator, an electro-absorption modulator, or other device that has optical path on-off or provides substantial loss modulation.
In order to better understand the working principle of the detection device of the present invention, the detection method of the present invention for preventing attack of seed light will be further described with reference to fig. 2 to 5.
The method for detecting the resistance to the seed light attack according to the present invention may include a synchronization step and an attack detection step.
The synchronization step is used to achieve time synchronization between the QKD device under test and the detection apparatus.
As an example, in the synchronization step, a delayed scanning light may be sent by the QKD device under test and a delayed scanning process performed to obtain a delay amount that maximizes the detection count output by the single-photon detection module in the detection apparatus.
Thus, the synchronization signal or amount of delay can be provided to the detection means based on the synchronization signal of the QKD device under test and the amount of delay obtained to achieve time synchronization between the detection means and the QKD device under test. For example, the light emission delay of the pulse seed light source module can be adjusted by means of a synchronization signal or a delay amount to enable the pulse seed light source module to be in time synchronization with the QKD device to be tested, namely, the attack time of the pulse seed light signal is synchronous with the time when the quantum light signal is emitted by the QKD device to be tested; alternatively, the optical path control module and the single photon detection module are time synchronized with the QKD device under test.
And on the basis of time synchronization of the detected QKD equipment and the detection device, executing an attack detection step, wherein the attack detection step is used for measuring single photon detection count of quantum optical signals sent by the detected QKD equipment under an attack condition and judging whether the detected QKD equipment can resist seed optical attack or not based on the single photon detection count. For example, the determination may be made based on whether the increase in the single photon detection count exceeds a preset threshold, i.e., when the increase exceeds the preset threshold, it is determined that the QKD device under test is unable to resist the seed light attack, otherwise it is able to resist the seed light attack.
As an example, in the attack detection step, both the pulse seed light source and the QKD device under test may be controlled to emit light, obtaining a single photon detection count of the quantum optical signal; and judging whether the detected QKD device can resist the attack of the seed light according to the variation amount (such as whether the increment exceeds a preset threshold value) of the single photon detection count.
Further, the detection method according to the present invention may further comprise a background measurement step for acquiring a background single photon detection count and a count distribution (i.e., a background noise) of the detection device on the basis of time synchronization.
As an example, in the background measurement step, the pulse seed light source module may be controlled to emit light, while the QKD device under test is controlled not to emit light, so as to obtain the detection count data output by the single photon detection module, so as to calculate and obtain the background single photon detection count and count distribution.
Preferably, in the attack detection step, the method further includes a step of controlling on-off of an optical path entering the single photon detection module based on the synchronization signal of the QKD device under test and the obtained delay amount, so as to allow only the quantum optical signal output by the QKD device under test under attack to enter the single photon detection module.
Based on the above, it can be understood that the invention can effectively reduce the power of the seed light by establishing time synchronization between the QKD device to be tested and the detection device resistant to the seed light attack and using the pulse seed light as the analog signal of the seed light attack, thereby reducing the detection noise caused by the seed light; meanwhile, through single photon detectors (particularly gating single photon detectors) and high-precision time resolution measurement, noise floor caused by limited connector isolation can be effectively eliminated, and detection precision is greatly improved.
While the invention has been described in connection with the specific embodiments illustrated in the drawings, it will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art that the above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention, which are not intended to limit the scope of the invention, and various combinations, modifications and equivalents of the above embodiments may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
