Abstract

In the last decade, a very interesting relationship between cryptography and chaos theory was developed. As a result of this close relationship, several chaos-based cryptosystems, especially using autonomous chaotic dynamical systems, have been put forward. However, this chapter presents a novel Chaotic Random Bit Generator (CRBG), which is based on the Poincaré map of a non-autonomous dynamical system. For this reason, the very-well known Duffing-van der Pol system has been used. The proposed CRBG also uses the X-OR function for improving the “randomness” of the produced bit streams, which are subjected to the most stringent statistical tests, the FIPS-140-2 suite tests, to detect the specific characteristics that are expected from random bit sequences.
