Abstract:

Wireless datacenter network is an emerging technology. Recent works have shown that by utilizing millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless communication, the power consumption of the networking equipment of datacenters can be reduced drastically. However, security of a datacenter is one of the highest design priorities. Many studies on the security of wired datacenters including identifying the possible threats and solutions have been explored in the literature. On the contrary, being an emerging technology, no study has been conducted on the security for the wireless datacenters. Moreover, being a wireless system, it also inherits most of the threats of a typical wireless system if not all. So, in order to successfully realize wireless datacenter architectures, it is essential to do an extensive investigation of the system from a security perspective. In this paper, we have done an extensive study on the possible threats and their impact on the wireless datacenter network. We showed that eavesdropping, denial of services, and jamming attacks are the most critical security threats for wireless datacenters.
