Name : jitterentropy-rngd Product : Fedora 24 Version : 1.0.3 Release : 1.fc24 URL : http://www.chronox.de/jent.html Summary : RNGD based on CPU Jitter RNG Description : The CPU Jitter Random Number Generator provides a non-physical true random number generator that works equally in kernel and user land. The only prerequisite is the availability of a high-resolution timer that is available in modern CPUs. Upon starting as a service, it will block until it has written 256 bytes of entropy (which happens almost immediately) A whitepaper is available at: http://www.chronox.de/jent/doc/CPU-Jitter-NPTRNG.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Initial package -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1378160 - None https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1378160 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
