Question:
Cynthia understands that predictability is a problem in pseudo-random number generators (PRNGs) used for encryption operations. Which of the following terms describes the measure of uncertainty used to a PRNG?
A
Entropy.
explanation
Entropy is a measure of uncertainty. Having sources of entropy (or randomness) is a key element in a PRNG. Some pseudorandom number generators rely on input from keyboards, mice, or other human-generated inputs to have a source of entropy data.
