Many clock-recovery circuits produce a repetitive, predictable jitter. This effect is particularly noticeable in cheesy clock-multiplier circuits and poorly equalized data-recovery units. The name for ...

The reason that a hacker can’t generate this deterministic random number is that the input for generating this number consists of the user’s private key and the function is a hash function, which is ...

In the world of information security, we often see statements such as ‘secured by 128-bit AES’ or ‘protected by 2048 bit authentication’. We are used to people asking about the strength of the ...

As data rates increase, the adverse effects of jitter become more critical. So jitter budgets understandably become tighter. Consequently, it is not surprising that jitter measurements are becoming ...

A team of Korean researchers has developed a world-class Deterministic Random Bits Generator (DRBG). Random numbers are crucial values in computer security, such as secret keys and initialization ...

April 16, 2014 – Ottawa, Canada: Elliptic Technologies, a leading provider of security solutions for the connected world, today announced the launch of two NIST (National Institute of Standards ...

Order, for instance in terms of perfect periodicity, is not the predominant case in nature and the impact of disorder is present everywhere. Consequently, we need physical models that properly ...

Random numbers are a precious commodity, whether expressed as strings of decimal digits or simply 1s and 0s. Computer scientist George Marsaglia of Florida State University, however, likes giving them ...
