Entropy Sector API

Introduction

Entropy Sector API is an application service that makes SwiftRNG true random numbers available to your application using a RESTful API. The new API is deployed to entropysector.com and it is accessible from any application with an internet connection.

Data communication and security

• Random data is downloaded over HTTPS in byte stream and JSON format.
• Every byte stream response contains a SHA256 hash value of the random bytes. Optionally, with the request, a custom salt value is provided for SHA256 calculations.
• Additional encryption is available to secure the downloaded random byte stream.

Getting help

Our Entropy Sector API documentation provides everything you need to know to get started with the service.
