Quantum Dice launches world’s fastest QRNG Quantum Random Number Generator
Quantum Dice in the UK has launched the world’s fastest quantum random number generator (QRNG).
The APEX QRNG has a 7.5 Gbit/s rate of post-processed random numbers for cybersecurity applications in data centres, telecommunications hubs, and other enterprise applications.
The spinout from Oxford University’s quantum optics lab developed a patented source-device independent self-certification (DISC) protocol that performs a continuous entropy evaluation on each key providing live quantum assurance, even in the presence of environmental disturbances.

Coupled with a PCI Express form factor, this allows the new generation of the APEX device to easily integrated into existing infrastructure and uniquely combined with security features. A fundamental challenge in QRNG development is the generation of verifiably trusted encryption keys while also delivering a high generation rate.
“The exponential increase in communication channels over the last few decades as well as specific trends such as the rapid expansion of data centres and the advent of novel encryption and secure communications methods, have placed ever more strenuous demands on our ability to provide the supply of entropy that is required for trusted cybersecurity. With its speed, combined with the security assurance of our DISC protocol, the APEX is a game-changer, making robust security accessible to a broader spectrum of users than ever before,” said Dr. Ramy Shelbaya, CEO and Co-founder.
