X9 X9.82: Part 4: 2011 (R2017) Random Number Generation, Part 4: Random Bit Generator Constructions

standard by Accredited Standards Committee X9 Incorporated, 11/11/2011

Full Description

Cryptography and security applications make extensive use of random numbers and random bits. However, the generation of random bits is problematic in many practical applications of cryptography. The purpose of ANSI X9.82: Part 4: 2011 (R2017) is to specify a standard for the design of random bit generators (RBGs) and to provide methods for converting the random bits to random numbers when required. By matching the security requirements of the application using the random bits with the security claims of the RBG generating those bits, an application can safely use the random bits produced by an RBG conforming to this Standard.
