AB  - In this work, we used a sensor-based True Random Number Generator in order to 
      generate keys for a stream cipher based on a recently published hybrid algorithm 
      mixing Skew Tent Map and a Linear Feedback Shift Register. The stream cipher was 
      implemented and tested in a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and was able to 
      generate 8-bit width data streams at a clock frequency of 134 MHz, which is fast 
      enough for Gigabit Ethernet applications. An exhaustive cryptanalysis was 
      completed, allowing us to conclude that the system is secure. The stream cipher 
      was compared with other chaotic stream ciphers implemented on similar platforms 
      in terms of area, power consumption, and throughput.
