QUANTUM KRISPY KREME SEMINAR:
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.
