Randomness sits at the heart of everything we do online. Many encryption algorithms depend upon randomly generated numbers to work, and that’s just one example of many. But how random is random? It’s ...

Using a single, chip-scale laser, scientists have managed to generate streams of completely random numbers at about 100 times the speed of the fastest random-numbers generator systems that are ...

How can you generate random bits? Some people think it’s not easy, others will tell you that it’s pretty damn hard, and then there are those who wonder if it is possible at all. Of course, it is easy ...

QRNGs are expected to experience tremendous growth during the forecast period because they have an unparalleled capability to create genuinely random numbers based on quantum mechanics, offering the ...

[Ian] had a need for a lot of random numbers. There are dozens of commercial offerings when it comes to RNGs, but there are also hundreds of different ways for an electronics hobbyist to shoot random ...

A team of international scientists has developed a laser that can generate 254 trillion random digits per second, more than a hundred times faster than computer-based random number generators (RNG).

Quantum cybersecurity firm QuintessenceLabs (QLabs) has announced developing a full-entropy quantum random number generator (QRNG), by leveraging a "flaw" in diodes. QLabs said the flaw, a quantum ...
