A new network paradigm can generate meaningfully random numbers—and fast. In network encryption, randomness has huge value because it’s not “solvable” by hackers. Classical computers can’t be ...

Computer scientists at the University of Glasgow have borrowed from the world of geology and crystals to help machines better generate random numbers. While computers whip up "random" numbers rather ...

Quantum physics can be exploited to generate true random numbers, which have important roles in many applications, especially in cryptography. Genuine randomness from the measurement of a quantum ...
