Pseudo-randomness in cryptography by Bansal Arushi

“…In addition, the paper defines the criteria for a cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generator (CSPRNG) and outlines the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) randomness test suite, which offers a framework for evaluating the randomness quality of RNG outputs. The conclusions drawn from this research underscore the indispensable requirement of high-quality randomness in protecting cryptographic infrastructures from advanced threats, calling for continuous advancements and evaluations in PRNG technologies.…”
