Title

Random Bits/Numbers

Random bits (or numbers) are used for many purposes, including the generation of keys and nonces, and the issuing of challenges during communication protocols. Random bits may be distributed, but whether or not confidentiality protection is required depends on the context in which the random bits are used.
