Abstract
A system gets entropy from one side of a communications channel to the other by using methods to deterministically change the expansion array. This can be encrypted with anything as the payload. The messages for expansion are encrypted with a one-time-pad (OTP) so they cannot be discovered. A purpose is to use OTP encryption to distribute entropy to two or more sides of a communications channel from a third server that delivers TRNG (True Random Number Generation).
Claims20
A secure communication system comprising:
- a random number generator configured to generate a random number string;
- a processor or processing circuit that expands the random number string to generate entropy expansion;
- and
- a message processor that processes OTP encrypted messages that direct changes to the expansion and carry new key material to replace array elements periodically, wherein the processor or processing circuit uses the expanded entropy as a one time pad.
