Apparatus and method for securely determining an outcome from multiple random event generators

An apparatus which securely generates a random outcome, the apparatus comprising:

• a first processor having a random event generator for generating a first event of a multiple-part event, wherein the first processor encrypts the first event needing a first decryption key for decryption;
• a second processor having a random event generator for generating a second event of the multiple-part event, wherein the second processor encrypts the second event needing a second decryption key for decryption;
• and
• a third processor;
• wherein the third processor has the first key and the second key, receives the first event from the first processor and the second event from the second processor, and decrypts the first event and the second event prior to using the first and second events to form an outcome.

An apparatus which securely generates a random outcome, the apparatus comprising:

• a first processor having a random event generator for generating a first event of a multiple-part event;
• a second processor having a random event generator for generating a second event of the multiple-part first event;
• and
• a third processor;
• wherein the third processor receives the first event from the first processor and the second event from the second processor and an outcome is determined by the first and second events, wherein the third processor creates a log of received first and second events and stores the log in a third processor storage medium.

An apparatus which securely generates a random outcome, the apparatus comprising:

• a first processor having a random event generator for generating a first event of a multiple-part event;
• a second processor having a random event generator for generating a second event of the multiple-part event;
• and
• a third processor;
• wherein the third processor receives the first event from the first processor and the second event from the second processor and an outcome is determined by the first and second events, wherein the third processor passes the second event to the first processor, the first processor using the first and second events to form an outcome.

A method for securely generating a random outcome, the method comprising the steps of:

• generating the first event of a multiple-part event in a first processor having a random event generator;
• generating the second event of the multiple-part event in a second processor having a random event generator;
• sending the generated first event to the second processor;
• using the first event and the second event to form an outcome;
• creating a log of all first events generated by the first processor storing the log in a first associated storage medium;
• creating a log of all second events generated by the second processor;
• and
• storing the log in a second associated storage medium.

A method for securely generating a random outcome, the method comprising the steps of:

• generating a first event of a multiple-part event in a first processor having a random event generator;
• generating a second event of the multiple-part event in a second processor having a random event generator;
• receiving the first event from the first processor and the second event from the second into a third processor;
• determining an outcome based on the first event and second event;
• encrypting the first event needing a first decryption key for decryption;
• encrypting the second event needing a second decryption key for decryption;
• decrypting the first event in the third processor using the first decryption key;
• decrypting the second event in the third processor using the second decryption key;
• creating a log of received events by the third processor;
• storing the log of received events in a processor storage medium;
• and
• passing the second event from the third processor to the first processor;
• wherein the first processor determines the outcome based upon the first and second events.
