A 'one time pad' is the ONLY way that is uncrackable, but requires physical access between both sender and receiver at some point in time.

In 2010 Bruce Schneier published Cryptography Engineering, which is focused more on how to use cryptography in real systems and less on its internal design.

 

He has also written books on security for a broader audience.

 

In 2000, Schneier published Secrets and Lies: Digital Security in a Networked World;

in 2003, Beyond Fear: Thinking Sensibly About Security in an Uncertain World;

in 2012, Liars and Outliers: Enabling the Trust that Society Needs to Thrive; and

in 2015, Data and Goliath: The Hidden Battles to Collect Your Data and Control Your World.^[14]

Can THESE be used to create a one time pad?

Question: Can letter beads be used as the random number generator to create a one time pad?

Generating answers for you…

Yes, letter beads can be used as a random number generator to create a one-time pad. However, it is important to ensure that the beads are truly random and that the selection process is unbiased. This can be achieved by using a large number of beads and mixing them thoroughly before selecting each bead.

Alternatively, you can use an online one-time pad generator such as the one provided by Fourmilab ¹. It generates one-time pads or password lists in a variety of forms and is based on a high-quality pseudorandom sequence generator. You can select the format of the pad and press “Generate” to create the pad in the text box. You can then copy and paste the generated pad into another window to use as you wish.

I hope this helps!

Hint: do NOT think that ANY 'random' number generating program is going to give you an unbreakable answer; espically one that it on line!!!
