To help ensure the highest quality, international standards bodies have developed criteria to substantiate the truly random nature of TRNGs in a verifiable and statistically rigorous manner.
Weak or predictable random numbers open the door for attacks that can compromise keys, intercept data, and ultimately hack devices and their communication.ĭesigning True Random Number Generators (TRNGs) that provide consistently high-quality entropy across processes, temperature, voltage, and frequency variations is very complex. Many cryptographic operations require a source of random numbers, such as the creation of cipher keys and initial values for counters and protocol parameters. True random numbers are at the heart of any secure system and their quality contributes to the security strength of designs. The proliferation of connected devices and the evolving nature of attacks, breaches, and malware make the need for security in products and ecosystems more important than ever.
