Title: Attacking QKD via detection loopholes

Abstract: Recently the faked-states attack on quantum cryptography has been demonstrated on individual detectors. Here I discuss the first attack on a complete QKD system that extracts 100% of the "secret" key without any indication to the legitimate parties to indicate that the system has been compromised. I will discuss in particular its implications for "device independent" cryptography.
