- Abstract summary: Minecraft is great for games, but not so great for cybersecurity encryption key generation.
PRNGs generate random numbers by quantifying some unpredictable phenomena into a number or string and feeding it into an algorithm.
By using a hardware random number generator (HRNG), random numbers that are not susceptible to the flaws found in PRNGs can be attained at a high rate.

- Abstract: High quality random numbers are necessary in the modern world. Ranging from encryption keys in cyber security to models and simulations for scientific use: it's important that these random numbers are of high quality and quickly attainable. One common solution to the generation of random numbers is that of pseudo-random number generators, or PRNGs. PRNGs generate random numbers by first quantifying some unpredictable phenomena into a number or string and feeding it into an algorithm which yields numbers randomly based on that seed. Easy places to find seeds include the user's mouse movements or the machine's uptime. These are only pseudorandom, however, as if given the same seed twice, the PRNG would generate the same 'random' output. This is great for games like Minecraft, but not so great for cybersecurity encryption key generation. By using a hardware random number generator (HRNG), random numbers that are not susceptible to the flaws found in PRNGs can be attained at a high rate.

We prove that a simple construction can transform a "subverted" random oracle which disagrees with the original one at a small fraction of inputs into an object that is indifferentiable from a random function.
Our results permit future designers of cryptographic primitives in typical kleptographic settings to use random oracles as a trusted black box.

We use a toy fiber optic based setup to generate binary series, and evaluate their level of randomness according to Ville principle.
Series are tested with a battery of standard statistical indicators, Hurst, Kolmogorov complexity, minimum entropy, Takensarity dimension of embedding, and Augmented Dickey Fuller and Kwiatkowski Phillips Schmidt Shin to check station exponent.
The level of randomness of series obtained by applying Toeplitz extractor to rejected series is found to be indistinguishable from the level of non-rejected raw ones.
