A new random number generator that uses a micro laser developed by researchers at NTU Singapore is a hundred times faster than computer-based systems.

There’s no cheating this random number generator The protocol ensures jury duty selections and other draws are truly random and secure ...

Curiously, some popular random-number generators fail even in simulating a coin toss. Over time, they should produce roughly the same number of zeros and ones (heads and tails).

Whether it’s a game of D&D or encrypting top-secret information, a wide array of methods are available for generating the needed random numbers with high enough entropy for their use case. For a ...
