Pseudo-random generators | Lesson Summary

The key points from this module are:
Properties of a One-way Function are:

It should be easy to compute
It should be difficult to invert

An encryption algorithm in any stream cipher is always deterministic.
A Pseudorandom Function is a deterministic algorithm with two inputs and a single output.
The two variants of Pseudorandom functions are:

Pseudorandom Permutation
Strong Pseudorandom Permutation
