Quantum Random Numbers Generator QRNGs are hardware component that Quantum-level security is the exploit the built-in unpredictability of only way to create secure communication in mobile quantum mechanics, are a genuinely devices, data centers and even disruptive technology, bringing medical implants, to name just quantum-level security to markets at a few key markets affordable prices The market for QRNG applications is predicted to reach US$ 14 B by 2030. QRNGs are believed to be the ultimate weapon against Cyber Criminality
Communication over the internet Security is enhanced through public-key Public Key Private cryptosystems like RSA that uses (A,B,C,D) Key (C) sophisticated encryption algorithm Encryption Decryption Plain Text Cipher Text Plain Text Algorithm Algorithm The strength of these encryption algorithms depends on the quality of random numbers used to generate the Pseudo Random Numbers: generated by algorithms; encryption keys potentially crackable True Random Numbers : generated by quantum phenomena; uncrackable 4
The Urgency of Cybersecurity The global cybersecurity market is predicted to grow from $167.1B in 2019 to $248.26B by 2023, attaining a 10.4% CAGR, according to Statista • COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the need for better Cybersecurity as an urge of incidences and cases of Cybercrime were observed across industries. • Cybersecurity now dominates the priorities of every organization as each adapts to a post-COVID 19 world. Remote worker’s identities and devices are the new security perimeter. • Cyber security and defense against online threats undertake greater significance in today’s digital changing landscape. 5

How to achieve true randomness ? • Pseudo-randomness: random numbers generated by an algorithm that mimics randomness: fast but predictable • Classical Randomness: analog signal with complex behaviour, obeying classical mechanics: can be fast, seems random but is deterministic • Quantum Randomess: truly random by nature. QRNG is the only solution to true randomness !
Quantum tunneling Quantum tunneling or tunneling refers to the Particles (sub-atomic) in quantum quantum mechanical phenomenon where a particle mechanics have wave-particle duality tunnels through a barrier that it classically could not surmount. Classical Picture Quantum Picture 13
Random current in a tunnel junction • Electrons jump one at a time by quantum tunneling • The jump probabilities can be calculated precisely. • Random current quantity depends on voltage. Γ+ 2.5 I(t) 2.0 e- e- 1.5 I(t) Γ- I 1.0 time 0.5 0.0 0 20 40 60 80 time V V=0 V>0 14
