Mahathi Kari's research contributes to this conversation by examining one of the foundational building blocks of secure computing: cryptographic hashing.

Every crypto gambler faces the same question. Is this game actually fair? A provably fair casino gives players a way to check. It doesn’t ask for trust. It offers math instead. And that math runs on ...

Hashing is a one-way cryptographic function while encryption is designed to work both ways. Encryption algorithms take input and a secret key and generate a random looking output called a ciphertext.
