Practical Random Number Generation in Software
There is a large gap between the theory and practice for random number generation. For example, on most operating systems, using /dev/random to generate a 256-bit AES key is highl...

A meta-level true random number generator
: True random number generators (TRNGs) are extensively used in cryptography, simulations and statistics. In this work, we introduce, extend and analyse the concept of the randomis...

Random Number Generators Founded on Signal and Information Theory
The strength of a cryptographic function depends on the amount of entropy in the cryptovariables that are used as keys. Using a large key length with a strong algorithm is false co...
