Encryption systems rely on “random” numbers, but conventional computers can’t generate them perfectly. New research shows that quantum physics can.
The randomness in quantum physics is imperfect and needs amplification to be considered truly random, the researchers say.
Perfect randomness sounds simple, until you try to make it. A die can be polished, balanced and rolled thousands of times.
