Yea you read that headline correctly, Cloudflare is protected by a wall of lava lamps. Cloudflare, a leading provider of cybersecurity services, employs an unconventional yet ingenious method to enhance digital security by using lava lamps. At their headquarters, a wall of lava lamps serves as a source of random entropy for cryptographic processes. The seemingly chaotic and unpredictable movements of the wax inside the lamps are captured by a camera, generating a stream of randomness. This randomness is then fed into their encryption algorithms, ensuring robust security. By incorporating the natural unpredictability of physical phenomena, Cloudflare strengthens its ability to protect against cyberattacks and enhances the reliability of secure communications, blending the analog and digital worlds in a creative and effective way.
That is cyberpunk af.
