Sifting attacks in finite-size quantum key distribution
A central assumption in quantum key distribution (QKD) is that Eve has no knowledge about which rounds will be used for parameter estimation or key distillation. Here we show that this assumption is violated for iterative sifting , a sifting procedure that has been employed in some (but not all) of...
