The self tests were updated to include the Secure Application profile recommended by Cryptography Research, Inc in their 2003 audit report. Here's what it looks like when running cryptest.exe: Testing Padlock RNG generator... passed: VIA RNG is activated passed: von Neumann corrector is activated passed: String filter is deactivated passed: Bias voltage is unmodified passed: All 0's or all 1's test passed: Maurer Randomness Test returned value 0.999400 passed: 10000 generated bytes compressed to 10010 bytes by DEFLATE passed: discarded 10000 bytes passed: GenerateWord32 and Crop Testing RDRAND generator... RDRAND generator not available, skipping test. ... Jeff -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.
