Random number generator (RNG) certification service

---

A random number generator (RNG) plays a key role in the operation of gaming products such as roulette, lotteries, and slot machines. This mechanism determines the outcome of a game by ensuring an element of randomness. While RNG certification is not a mandatory procedure, it offers significant benefits for both game organizers and participants. On this page, we will explain how to obtain an RNG certificate with the help of Legal Solutions.

Why RNG Certification Is Important

An RNG certificate verifies the fairness of algorithms and guarantees to players that their chances of winning match the stated probabilities. This is a crucial condition for ensuring reliable and transparent gaming operations. Setting up an RNG algorithm allows for configuring the probability of different outcomes, which may be regulated by law or casino rules.

Certification ensures that the algorithms remain unchanged, eliminating the risk of fraud. This contributes to building the company's reputation and earning players' trust. Upholding the principles of fairness benefits both game organizers and participants.

Types of Random Number Generators

There are two main types of RNGs:

1. Hardware RNGs

   • Generate completely random numbers.

   • Do not use algorithms, making them unpredictable.

   • Highly reliable due to being virtually hack-proof.

2. Software RNGs

   • Operate based on mathematical algorithms.

   • Produce pseudo-random numbers with limited randomness.

   • Suitable for most gaming products but less reliable than hardware RNGs.

The RNG Certification Process

Certification involves several stages conducted by accredited public or private organizations:

Stage 1: Selecting a Certification Body and Preparing Documents

At the initial stage, it is necessary to choose a certification organization and gather the required documents. The cost of the procedure depends on the number of platforms and games involved in the project.

Stage 2: System Testing

Once the documents are submitted, the system undergoes testing, which includes:

• Analysis of statistical randomness;

• Evaluation of the generator's internal state;

• Verification of the absence of cycles and repetitions;

• Testing scalability and shuffling.

This stage identifies potential vulnerabilities.

Stage 3: Diehard Testing

The RNG undergoes Diehard tests, one of the most rigorous methods for verifying algorithm randomness.

Stage 4: Chi-Square Test Compliance

The final stage involves checking compliance with chi-square criteria to assess statistical reliability.

The process takes one to three weeks. Some certification organizations offer pre-developed algorithms, which can speed up the verification process.
