In plasmonic systems, the response of nanoobjects under light illumination can produce complex optical maps. Such plasmonic or resonant systems have interesting characteristics such as sensitivity on parameters and initial conditions. In this paper, we show how these complex maps can be cryptographically improved and associated in order to design a secure pseudo random number generator.
