It works\u202foffline\u202fand can be used in computer security systems, in cryptography, to perform simulations and in all areas where random values are required.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”2085″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

How does it work?<\/span><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The device identifies the passage of muons, to which we are constantly exposed, records their energy and instant of arrival, and on the basis of these parameters it is able to provide sequences of random numbers.
\nThe extreme randomness of the phenomenon with which muons are generated \u2013 interaction of cosmic rays with the atmosphere \u2013 ensures that the produced sequences are truly random, hence not reproducible.
\nTRAM works in any environment and does not need any internet connection, which makes it totally immune to cyber attacks.
\nIt can be miniaturized and installed directly on PCs or associated with devices such as credit cards.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
