Randomness theory could hold key to internet security

Is there an unbreakable code? The question has been central to cryptography for thousands of years, and lies at the heart of efforts to secure private information on the internet. In a new paper, Cornell Tech researchers identified a problem that holds the key to whether all encryption can be broken—as well as a surprising connection to a mathematical concept that aims to define and measure randomness.
