TRUE RANDOM NUMBERS UNDERPIN BLOCKCHAIN AND CRYPTOQUANTUM has beast technology.
The application is monstrous.
Pure IOT.
This seems trivial, but random numbers are more important to us than you might think. Random numbers are used widely in computer systems for applications from gaming to adding texture to graphics and statistical modelling. But the most obvious case where randomness is critical is with cryptography, which increasingly underpins the security of our sensitive data. The use of encryption has become ubiquitous in modern IT environments and plays a vital role in emerging technologies such as blockchain and bitcoin services and in helping to comply with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). If organisations can demonstrate that data was encrypted, they don’t have to disclose that they lost it. ...........
What is clear though is that anything other than true randomness introduces risk. It’s tempting to take random numbers for granted but that would be a mistake. Our reliance on cryptography continually raises the bar for generating true random numbers and therefore completely unpredictable and uncrackable keys. Complete confidence in your security systems can only come from a consistent supply of true entropy across your entire application environment. Randomness can no longer be left to chance.

Richard Moulds, General Manager at Whitewood Security, explains why we can't afford to leave random numbers to chance to protect our data. When is a random number not a random number? The problem with answering this question is that it is impossible to tell a truly random number from one that isn't.
