Very little in this life is truly random. A coin flip is influenced by the flipper’s force, its surrounding airflow, and ...

From jury duty to tax audits, randomness plays a big role. Scientists used quantum physics to build a system that ensures those number draws can’t be gamed.

Physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colorado, have upgraded their previously ...

People often draw straws, throw dice or flip coins to make fair choices. Random numbers can enable auditors to make completely unbiased selections. Randomness is also key in security; if a ...

Now physicists have combined that feature with blockchain techniques to generate random numbers in a fully transparent process for the first time 1. Public sources of random numbers are used for ...

Malware-laced PyPI and npm packages steal developer credentials, CI/CD data, and crypto wallets. Attacks target macOS, AI ...

“The unpredictability of random numbers is fundamental to both digital security and applications that fairly distribute resources,” begins a new paper from researchers at the University of ...

Officials say the former student who killed nine students and a teacher at a school in Austria and then took his own life ...

This important study investigates frequency-dependent effects of transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) on bladder function in healthy humans and, through a computational model, shows that low ...

Scientists have built the first ever traceable and certifiable random number generator that uses quantum entanglement.
