/** * \file ctr_drbg.h * * \brief This file contains definitions and functions for the * CTR_DRBG pseudorandom generator. * * CTR_DRBG is a standardized way of building a PRNG from a block-cipher * in counter mode operation, as defined in NIST SP 800-90A: * Recommendation for Random Number Generation Using Deterministic Random * Bit Generators. * * The Mbed TLS implementation of CTR_DRBG uses AES-256 (default) or AES-128 * (if \c MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_USE_128_BIT_KEY is enabled at compile time) * as the underlying block cipher, with a derivation function. * * The security strength as defined in NIST SP 800-90A is * 128 bits when AES-128 is used (\c MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_USE_128_BIT_KEY enabled) * and 256 bits otherwise, provided that #MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_ENTROPY_LEN is * kept at its default value (and not overridden in mbedtls_config.h) and that the * DRBG instance is set up with default parameters. * See the documentation of mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed() for more * information. */ /* * Copyright
