Quantis is a hardware random number generator exploiting an elementary quantum optics process to provide high quality randomness for cryptographic, gaming and other applications.
Quantis exists in five versions: a USB device, a PCI Express (PCIe) board, the Quantis Appliance, AIS31 validated devices and an OEM component. The product delivers best-in-class random bit rate of up to 16Mbps.
