摘要
Random number generators are important components of information security systems. In particular, cryptography standards require that the numbers generated by quantum key distribution applications meet a rigorous set of standardized randomness tests. To date, implementations of entangled quantum key distribution (EQKD) have not included any randomness assessment. We report on the results of randomness tests and highlight how typical EQKD system operation affects the successes and failures in meeting the fundamental test criteria.
