Randomness Extractors and Quantum-Enhanced Seeds for Cybersecurity (N23c)
As quantum computing progresses, the demand for high-quality random numbers in cryptographic applications continues to grow. This talk examines advanced randomness generation techniques, focusing on the technical foundations of scaling true randomness. Topics include the limitations of traditional methods, the concept of strong seeded randomness extractors, and the mechanics of two-source extractors applied with quantum seeds.
The talk explores min-entropy estimation, Bell test results, and the performance implications of these methods for diverse cybersecurity applications. Attendees will gain insights into implementing advanced randomness generation techniques to future-proof systems against classical and quantum threats.
