🔐 BB84 Key Sifting Statistics: Measured QBER vs the 25% Intercept-Resend Limit

BB84 quantum key distribution statistics: sifting rate 50 percent and QBER about 25 percent under full intercept-resend, with error bars.

Simulate BB84 photon by photon with an optional intercept-resend eavesdropper and channel noise. Watch the sifted key rate settle at 50 percent and the QBER converge to 25 percent times the attacked fraction, with sample-size error bars.
