truly random sequence
1Random number generation — A random number generator (often abbreviated as RNG) is a computational or physical device designed to generate a sequence of numbers or symbols that lack any pattern, i.e. appear random. Computer based systems for random number generation are… …
2Random number generator attack — The security of cryptographic systems depends on some secret data that is known to authorized persons but unknown and unpredictable to others. To achieve this unpredictability, some randomization is typically employed. Modern cryptographic… …
3random — adj. VERBS ▪ be, seem ADVERB ▪ completely, entirely, purely, quite, totally ▪ almost …
4Static random access memory — (SRAM) is a type of semiconductor memory where the word static indicates that, unlike dynamic RAM (DRAM), it does not need to be periodically refreshed, as SRAM uses bistable latching circuitry to store each bit. SRAM exhibits data remanence,cite …
5Pseudorandom number generator — A pseudorandom number generator (PRNG), also known as a deterministic random bit generator (DRBG),[1] is an algorithm for generating a sequence of numbers that approximates the properties of random numbers. The sequence is not truly random in… …
6Statistical randomness — A numeric sequence is said to be statistically random when it contains no recognizable patterns or regularities; sequences such as the results of an ideal die roll, or the digits of π exhibit statistical randomness.Statistical randomness does not …
7Linear feedback shift register — [ xor gate provides feedback to the register that shifts bits from left to right. The maximal sequence consists of every possible state except the 0000 state.] A linear feedback shift register (LFSR) is a shift register whose input bit is a… …
8Brute force attack — In cryptanalysis, a brute force attack is a method of defeating a cryptographic scheme by trying a large number of possibilities; for example, possible keys in order to decrypt a message. In most schemes, the theoretical possibility of a brute… …
9Brute-force attack — The EFF s US$250,000 DES cracking machine contained over 1,800 custom chips and could brute force a DES key in a matter of days. The photograph shows a DES Cracker circuit board fitted with 32 Deep Crack chips and some control chips. In… …
