The drawing room is secured by alarms and motion detectors, and activity inside is videotaped. Each drawing is conducted using one of two secure automated drawing machines.
The machines are completely separate from the system that generates tickets, so the number of winners or where the winning tickets were sold is not known until after the drawing has occurred. Encased in locked cabinets, each automated drawing machine is essentially a tamper-proof, stand-alone computer equipped only to perform random number generation. The devices pass independently verified and internationally benchmarked batteries of tests for producing random results. Prior to each drawing, the machine to be utilized is randomly selected.
The drawing system also utilizes several encryption algorithms to ensure randomness and security of the data, which is tested continuously. Finally, the system selects the winning numbers based on the game matrix parameters from the tested and secure raw data, displays them on the animated display console and writes them to a log file.
The official results are also printed and signed off on by both the Lottery drawing official and the legislative auditor overseeing the drawing.
