Dr Mike Pound explains the mathematics behind the suspected NSA backdoor in the Dual_EC_DRBG random number generator.
The back door that may not be a back door... The suspicion about Dual_EC_DRBG - The Dual Elliptic Curve Deterministic Random Bit Generator - with Dr Mike Pound. EXTRA BITS: youtu.be/XEmoD06_mZ0 Nothing up my sleeve Numbers: youtu.be/oJWwaQm-Exs Elliptic Curves: youtu.be/NF1pwjL9-DE facebook.com/computerphile twitter.com/computer_phile This video was filmed and edited by Sean Riley. Computer Science at the University of Nottingham: bit.ly/nottscomputer Computerphile is a sister project to Brady Haran's Numberphile. More at bradyharan.comWhat people say. Recommended as an exceptionally clear and intuitive explanation of how the Dual_EC_DRBG backdoor works mathematically.
