[Zach] sent in a project he’s been working on that brings hardware random number generators to common hardware you might have lying around. It’s called Whirlyfly and it turns an FPGA dev board into a ...

How can you generate random bits? Some people think it’s not easy, others will tell you that it’s pretty damn hard, and then there are those who wonder if it is possible at all. Of course, it is easy ...

A wide variety of applications, including data encryption and circuit testing, require random numbers. As the cost of the hardware become cheaper, it is feasible and frequently necessary to implement ...

A new research paper titled “FPGA Random Number Generator” was published by a researcher at Johns Hopkins University. According to the paper’s abstract: “This paper offers a proof-of-concept for ...

Add articles to your saved list and come back to them any time. Special circuitry to generate random numbers has been built into a computer processor called C3, released last week by Taiwan's VIA ...

As wireless network connectivity becomes almost ubiquitous in both private and public sectors, it has also become immensely profitable for criminals to use those networks to invade computers to steal ...

A team of security researchers from the U.S. and Europe has released a paper showing how integrated circuits used in computers, military equipment and other critical systems can be maliciously ...
