Random numbers are at the heart of modern cryptography, and access to these services hasCrucial
The predictable source of random numbers cancompromise the application that encrypts all transmitted traffic. Such a source can crack artificial intelligence and mathematically determine the cryptographic keys and passwords that were generated for users or at a certain time.
The Entropy League will operate on five differentand independent servers. The statement says that even if part of them are compromised, the rest will be able to provide numbers in a random order, and it will be impossible to predict them.
Among the developers of the project is Protocol Labs researcher Nicholas Gailey, University of CaliforniaChile, the École Polytechnique State de Lausanne (EPFL) and Kudelski Security.All participants will manage one server with different sources of entropy — fromlava lamps to seismic data.
