What's new
Robust entropy testing with NIST SP 800-22 and ENT
The Benchmark Lab now runs a full industry-standard statistical battery — the same tests cryptographers use to evaluate RNGs.
NIST SP 800-22 statistical test suite
Frequency, block-frequency, runs, longest-run, DFT, non-overlapping template, and more — the same battery used to evaluate cryptographic RNGs.
ENT metrics
Shannon entropy, chi-square, arithmetic mean, Monte Carlo π estimate, and serial correlation — reported alongside NIST results.
Cellular Automata vs legacy RNGs
Compare the AKRUM Cellular Automata entropy engine head-to-head with OS RNG, Intel RDRAND, and Math.random on the same tests.
Exportable reports
Take the full statistical report to audit, compliance, or security review — PDF, CSV, and JSON.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does the Entropy Benchmark Lab actually measure?
+
It measures the statistical quality of randomness — Shannon entropy, run-length distributions, byte histograms, and autocorrelation — across AKRUM's Cellular Automata entropy engine and competing generators. You see, in seconds, whether a source is truly uniform or only looks random.
How does AKRUM's Cellular Automata entropy compare to OS RNG, Intel RDRAND, and Math.random?
+
AKRUM compares them side by side in the same run. AKRUM's Cellular Automata entropy engine is seedless and stateless, while OS RNG and RDRAND remain seeded and hardware-dependent and Math.random is not suitable for security at all — the charts make the gap visible.
What is Shannon entropy and why does it matter for security?
+
Shannon entropy measures unpredictability per bit, with 8.0 as the ideal for byte streams. Higher, evenly distributed entropy makes keys harder to guess or model. Weak entropy is the root cause behind many real-world key compromises and brute-force attacks.
Can I export the benchmark report for an audit or compliance review?
+
Yes. Paid tiers export detailed reports as PDF, CSV, and JSON, with entropy heatmaps and statistical charts ready for auditors. You can also share runs with dev, compliance, or security teams through SecureCollab without leaving the platform.
Is the benchmark independently validated?
+
Yes. AKRUM's entropy engine is validated against the NIST Statistical Test Suite (NIST STS) and the Diehard battery of randomness tests, the two industry-standard frameworks regulators and security teams expect to see for cryptographic-grade RNGs.
Do I need an account to run a benchmark?
+
You need a free account to keep results tied to you, but Free includes 25 benchmark runs per month with a summary report — no card required. Upgrade for unlimited runs, full visualization dashboards, exports, and the AKRUM Certified RNG badge.
