Abstract
Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) has recently emerged as a candidate 6G technology, aiming to unify the two key operations of the future network in a spectrum/energy/cost-efficient way. ISAC systems communicate and sense for targets using a common waveform, a common hardware platform, and ultimately the same network infrastructure. Nevertheless, the inclusion of information signaling in the probing waveform for target sensing raises challenges from the perspective of information security. At the same time, the sensing capability incorporated in ISAC transmission offers unique opportunities to design secure ISAC techniques. This overview article discusses these unique challenges and opportunities for…
