Data encryption is increasingly gaining prominence in the contemporary world. Indeed,
the need to secure information and restrict access to private information has necessitated the
continued use of encryption. The stream cipher plays a significant role in the generation of secret
codes and keys that are then restricted to be used by the recipient of the coded information. In the
generation of keys for the successful coding process, it is vital to safeguard the unpredictability
of the keys generated. In so doing, one can secure the security and privacy of the keys through
encryption. While statistical randomness is essential in successful encryption, unpredictability is
even more important in safeguarding the privacy and security of generated keys.
While both statistical randomness and unpredictable are necessary for statistical
operations, unpredictability is most desired. In essence, reciprocal authentication i...
