Quantum Attack Simulator v1.0 - Initial Release

This is the first official release of the Quantum Attack Simulator, a Python-based tool for studying the security of quantum communication systems. Version 1.0 focuses on simulating and analyzing the BB84 quantum key distribution protocol.

Key Features

• BB84 Protocol Simulation: Explore the behavior of the BB84 protocol under different scenarios.
• Attack Simulations:
  • Man-in-the-Middle (MITM): Analyze the impact of eavesdropping attempts on the quantum channel.
  • Photon Number Splitting (PNS): Detect and mitigate sophisticated attacks using decoy states.
• Depolarization Noise Simulation:
  • Simulate real-world noise in quantum channels with customizable parameters.
• Visualization Tools:
  • Error rate graphs for intensity levels (low, medium, high).
  • Observed error rates vs. expected noise thresholds.
• Flexible CLI:
  • Run simulations with different configurations using command-line arguments.
  • Example:

    quantum-sim --attack-type MITM --depolarization-noise 1

Installation

Install and run the simulator via pip:

pip install quantum-attack-simulator
quantum-sim

Alternatively, clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/koraydns/quantum-attack-simulator.git
cd quantum-attack-simulator
python examples/bb84_example.py

Notes

• Educational Purpose:
  This tool is designed for learning and research purposes. It is not optimized for production use.
• Future Features:
  More attack simulations, protocol extensions, and advanced error analysis are planned for future releases.
