The position is for a research project to develop a certifiable security hierarchy for Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs), enabling quantum randomness technologies to be classified and assessed against clearly defined, verifiable security levels. By grounding the hierarchy in rigorous theoretical models and supporting it with practical validation methodologies, the project aims to provide a robust framework for the trustworthy deployment of QRNGs in security-critical applications.
