In conclusion, the Vernam (one-time pad) cipher can not be perfectly secure, because any proof of perfect secrecy would require two incompatible definitions of randomness.

The One Time Pad has been kicking around in some shape or form since the 1880s but it wasn’t until 1917 that Gilbert Vernam et al formally patented a machine for automating the process.

First practical One Time Pad capability for both classical and quantum computing environments AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / October 4, 2019 / Cipher ...

One-time pads are the holy grail of cryptography—they are impossible to crack, even in principle. They work by adding a set of random digits to a message thereby creating a ciphertext that looks ...

To ensure security, the key is only used once and destroyed by both parties -- hence its nickname, the “one-time-pad” cipher. When the Soviets were sloppy with reusing keys, ...
