Are Openssl Random Number Generator NIST compliant ?
Hi all, Are RAND_seed(), RAND_add() NIST SP 800-151A compliant ? NIST SP 800-151A compliant enforces that RBGs specified in SP 800-90 (HASH, HMAC, CTR, DUAL_EC) and ANS X9.62-2005 (HMAC) are acceptable standards I think this depends on the engine being loaded. HOwever, not sure what engine is loaded by default ?
