چکیده
The goal of this paper is to examine randomness sources available in current mobile phones or other mobile devices. We identify potential sources of randomness and perform an analysis focused on the camera and the microphone input noise as promising sources of randomness. We also perform statistical tests and analyse quality of these sources of randomness including estimation of entropy in the generated data.

Generating Random and Pseudorandom Sequences in Mobile Devices
In our paper we study practical aspects of random and pseudorandom number generation in mobile environments. We examine and analyze several sources of randomness available in current mobile phones and other mobile devices at the application level. We identify good physical sources of randomness that are capable of generating data with high entropy in reasonable time and we investigate some rele...
متن کاملThe Sources of Randomness in Smartphones with Symbian OS
This paper is focused on the analysis of randomness sources available in current mobile phones. We discuss specifics of the mobile devices, identify potential sources of randomness, and define types of possible attackers. An analysis of a camera and a microphone input noise as a source of randomness has been performed and amount of available entropy estimated. We then also statistically tested ...
متن کاملCryptographic random and pseudorandom data generators
This dissertation thesis deals with cryptographic random and pseudorandom data generators in mobile computing environments (such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants, cryptographic smartcards). These mobile devices are typically bounded by the amount of energy, performance, memory or even silicon area. This lack of resources leads to very limited computing environments with: a) limited...
