I understand how standard random number generators work. But when working with crytpography, the random numbers really have to be random.
I know there are instruments that read cosmic white noise to help generate secure hashes, but your standard PC doesn't have this.
How does a cryptographically secure random number generator get it...
I don't know too much about encryption, I just want to ask, which method can get me the shortest result message ?
For instance, the message looks like this : "This is the secret input message", I wonder if the encrypted message can be shorter then the above 32 characters long ? Maybe something like "dfkfjkvf12".

Hi,
I need to hide a value in a mobile (Android OS) application. As far as I can see, encrypting the value is of no use as the key to the encryption mechanism must be available to the program and is thus available to an attacker reverse-engineering the code. So, it seems that the only "solution" is to hide the secret value in the applic...
