But who certifies the random numbers, and what can we do with them afterward? When you ask a computer to give you a random number, code behind the scenes is doing an approximation of randomness.
The more random the numbers, the harder the encrypted message is to crack. Both the beauty and pitfalls of computing come down to the machines' exacting nature in "random" number generation.
A team including CU PREP researchers and scientists from CU Boulder and NIST have built the first random number generator using quantum entanglement to produce verifiable random numbers. The group ...
