| Vulnerability of quantum key distribution systems to a Trojan-horse attack due to methods for estimating insertion losses | QCRYPT 2025 | Boris Nasedkin, Oleg Solomatin, Polina Morozova |
We have considered various approaches to measuring insertion losses by fiber-optic elements. As a result, we have demonstrated that WDM-filter losses do not add up when using a laser source for measurements. We also demonstrated that using a supercontinuum source leads to an underestimation of the insertion losses. |

| Vulnerabilities of fiber-based quantum key distribution systems outside operating spectral range | QCRYPT 2024 | Boris Nasedkin, Azat Ismagilov, Ilya Filipov, Fedor Kiselev, Andrei Gaidash, Alexei Kiselev, Anton Tcypkin, Vladimir Egorov, Anton Kozubov |
The security of quantum key distribution (QKD) systems is constantly being tested, and attacks that utilize probing pulses are have been widely developed recently. One of the most challenging methods is the Trojan-horse attack, which has been successfully demonstrated at 1924 nm. Moreover, the induced-photorefraction attack (IPA) represent attacks that will do better in the visible spectral range. We experimentally investigate the spectral properties of several conventional QKD components. We show that transmission of various fiber optical elements beyond telecommunication range should be taken into account during QKD system design and development due to the possibility for attacks realization. |
