What’s the best approach to make PRNGs favourably deterministic a.k.a. biased and how to protect yourself against this?

I mean this has certainly been implemented by some scummy PRNG developers, which thought of the economics behind it (especially in the casino and similar businesses). So it might be even legal in some cases, but this not Law StackExchange … Continue reading What’s the best approach to make PRNGs favourably deterministic a.k.a. biased and how to protect yourself against this?

How to determine the subsequent numbers of lсg knowing the coefficients 0 – 36? [closed]

I know all the coefficients lcg. But the programming language’s built-in random function (which generates these values from 0 to 36) discards the bits. I don’t quite understand what that means. And is it possible to predict the next number… Continue reading How to determine the subsequent numbers of lсg knowing the coefficients 0 – 36? [closed]

Why can’t you use True Random Number Generator (TRNG) to generate key stream in Stream Ciphers?

I read in the book that you cannot use True Random Number Generator (TRNG) to generate key stream in Stream Ciphers:

We
need some type of random number generator to derive the key stream. First, we note
that we cannot use a TRNG since, by… Continue reading Why can’t you use True Random Number Generator (TRNG) to generate key stream in Stream Ciphers?
