=============================== Due to the broadcast nature of radio propagation, the wireless air interface is open and accessible to both authorized and illegitimate users. This completely differs from a wired network, where communicating devices are physically connected through cables and a node without direct association is unable to access the network for illicit activities. The open communications environment makes wireless transmissions more vulnerable than wired communications to malicious attacks, including both passive eavesdropping for data interception and active jamming for disrupting the legitimate transmissions. Hence following a rudimentary introduction, we discuss the pros and cons of a few physical-layer security solutions, highlight the underlying information security vs. information reliability trade-off and conclude with a whistle-stop tour of quantum domain security solutions.
