One very often used source of physical randomness is the LSB of an ADC; yet many fail to recognize the exact conditions when this is usable, just one example, an adversary able to access the ADC's reference pin may quite easily induce some bias to the "randomness". But the "adversary" would not only need access to the pin - they would also need to know that this was the technique being used... So we're back to the old question of how good is "good enough"? |
