Sensitivity and uniformity in statistical randomness tests. Journal of Information Security and Applications 2022;70:103322. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jisa.2022.103322.2214-212610.1016/j.jisa.2022.103322https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/96835In this paper we propose a new measure of the sensitivity of a statistical test . This can be applied to any of the common statistical batteries (NIST SP 800-22, Dieharder, TestU01, ENT, all FIPS versions, etc.) We will validate its use with the FIPS 140-2 battery. In addition, we will apply this new measure to other statistical tests, including tests of independence and uniformity. The latter leads to a new test battery, not previously seen in the literature to the best of our knowledge, that can be very powerful as a sequence checking tool. This new proposal is later tested to judge its potential as a battery for cryptographic use.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/journal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.jisa.2022.103322https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214212622001685?via%3Dihubrestricted accessCiencias1209 Estadística
